Ifyou read our post about the partnering milestones for the BIO Business Forum this year, what we’re about to announce may not come as much surprise. The BIO Business Forum is adding a new member to the family: Monday.
Originally, the event was taking place from Tuesday, the 28th until Thursday, the 30th. But due to the trend we’re seeing, it’s clear to us that you simply want more meetings. Opening Monday as an additional Partnering day will allow you to do just that.
With that, here are the new hours for the BIO Business Forum:
| Date | Hours |
| Monday, June 27th | 12pm – 5pm |
| Tuesday, June 28th | 8am – 5pm |
| Wednesday, June 29th | 8am – 5pm |
| Thursday, June 30th | 8am – 5pm |

If you haven’t already done so, log in the BIO One-on-One Partnering System and update your availability for Monday, and the extra hours the rest of the week. As it works when you first get your account, these time slots are automatically blocked as busy.
Also, you should have all received this information in an email from biopartnering@bio.org, and you’ll find those hours listed there as well. We are also opening the onsite Partnering Help Desk an hour prior, and an hour after the main Partnering hours on each day, so we’ll be on hand to assist you at the event!
Do you have strategic ways you’ll be using this extra time? Let us know on Twitter @bio1x1
