Global Chapter
The Global Chapter provides an opportunity for students and mentors from anywhere in the world to participate in the BIOTech Futures program entirely online.
A Global Pathway to Participation
If you don't fall within one of our existing in-person chapters, you'll automatically be placed into the Global Chapter — letting you engage with the program regardless of where you are.
Through the Global Chapter, participants can:
Join multidisciplinary teams with students from around the world to develop innovative solutions
Work alongside experienced mentors from academia, industry, and healthcare
Participate in online workshops, networking opportunities, and challenge activities

The Symposium provides opportunities to:
-
Hear from leading experts across biotechnology, healthcare, engineering, and entrepreneurship
-
Present project outcomes in a professional online environment
-
Connect with students and mentors from diverse international backgrounds
-
Gain exposure to emerging technologies, research pathways, and career opportunities
