We at the Oregon Bioscience Association are constantly working to keep our members abreast of current trends and issues which relate to their operations as well as to expand our members’ professional network. We put on many professional development events through out the year. It is through these Community events that we are able to provide a supportive environment to facilitate technology convergence that will assist our medical device, diagnostic, biotechnology and pharmaceutical member companies to increase their synergies in Oregon.

As the OBA's signature event, the annual meeting is the premiere opportunity to meet biotech leaders, to learn about the growth in Oregon’s bioscience community and to discover new companies and technologies at the heart of our growing bioscience presence. Nationally and locally recognized experts provide economic and scientific development updates, and innovation takes center stage.
