🌟 Excited to share the success of our 2024 Australia-China BioInnovation Roundtable held in Melbourne last week! This milestone event brought together leading minds in biotechnology innovation and cross-border collaboration. Key discussions centered around three major themes: * Current landscape and opportunities in biotech * Supply chain integration and cross-border cooperation * Future investment outlook We were fortunate to have insightful research presentations from A/Prof Marina Zhang from Australia-China Relations Institute, University of Technology Sydney and Thom D. from Macquarie University, along with Dirk van der Kley from the National Security College who co-moderated the discussion. Their findings highlighted the evolving innovation ecosystems in both countries. Our Healthcare Investment Lead, Xiang Chen, shared valuable investment experience and provided an inspiring outlook for Australia-China biotech investment prospects. In-depth discussions highlighted the current state of innovation ecosystems between Australia and China, identifying key challenges and potential solutions. Participants stressed the importance of enhancing innovation frameworks and developing entrepreneurial ecosystems, with a focus on commercialising research outcomes. It was noted that Chinese biotech companies are proactively seeking opportunities in overseas markets. Australia can be pivotal in early-stage R&D. We will be organising key messages and insights from this roundtable in a white paper. Stay tuned for more updates on this important dialogue! Heartfelt appreciation to our supporting organizations: Australia China Business Council (ACBC) Australia China Alumni Association (ACAA) Australian Chinese Association of Scientists and Entrepreneurs (ACASE) Special thanks to Tom Parker 裴仁杰, National CEO of ACBC, for his invaluable support and coordination in making this event possible.

And a special shout-out to Shuyun Zhang for her excellent event coordination. Looking ahead to 2025, we're committed to deepening Australia-China tech innovation cooperation, expanding beyond biotech into climatech, smart manufacturing, and new materials. Let's continue building bridges for innovation! 🌉 #Innovation #Biotech #AustraliaChina #Collaboration #bosonventures #FutureOfHealthcare Shuyun Zhang Xiang Chen Helena L.
