About NZBIO 

NZBIO’s vision is for the growth of a prosperous New Zealand biotechnology sector.

NZBIO is a member-based organisation which acts to Enable an Effective Environment for Successful New Zealand Bio Enterprise.

It aims to achieve this purpose through four strategic objectives:
1.    Develop and advocate government policy relevant to bio enterprise;
2.    Provide members with relevant services that achieve positive impact on their performance;
3.    Be a thought leader on bio enterprise for the national good; and
4.    Promote New Zealand’s bio enterprise capability and opportunities globally.

NZBIO aims to achieve these strategic imperatives through the delivery of four product and service bundles:
• Policy & Advocacy

• Events, Seminars & Conferences
• National & International Marketing & Outreach

NZBIO employs these products and services as to support the four objectives for the broader industry, defined when NZBIO was established in 2003:
1. Generating valuable intellectual property
2. Creating a favourable operating environment for commercialisation
3. Developing business connections
4. Promoting industry development
