The BIO-X program offers a well-structured process, including project reviews and cost tracking, to support the team in reaching the goal. The industrial partner typically contributes to the project budget in cash and/or in kind, against a first right to negotiation.
I´m interested! What do I do next?

BIO-X™ is a structured way to team up with leading academic teams to develop proofs of concept, proofs of mechanisms or proof of hypothesis for new life science products. In the Region Västra Götaland BIO-X is enabled by a close collaboration with Uppsala BIO, who has developed the process. Selected project in the final stages will receive support for up to two years and will be presented before the end of the year.
