Federations &
regional clusters
The Belgian biotech ecosystem connects regional clusters of expertise with active industry federations.
Together, they pursue the innovation that results in a healthier world for today – and for tomorrow.
Federations
The Belgian biotech ecosystem is supported by three independent federations.
Their mission is to foster innovation, support industrialisation, facilitate collaboration with political stakeholders, promote the ecosystem both domestically and overseas, and ensure the very best healthcare for all.
Essenscia - Bio.be
Essenscia represents and promotes the interests of nearly 800 companies in the chemical and life sciences sector, with Bio.be the recognised voice of the community.
Regional clusters
The three regional clusters each bring together regional players from across the entire spectrum of biotechnology and biopharma.
These dynamic clusters power innovation through networking and training, supporting internationalisation, and building expertise with a specific regional focus.
