As an independent non-profit stakeholders’ association, we represent the interests of all stakeholders involved in the biotechnology sector throughout Africa, and promote the use of biotechnology as a means to upliftment. AfricaBio focuses on the agriculture, health, industrial, environmental and marine biotech. We seek to understand and address stakeholder concerns on biotechnology and biosafety, and to build confidence in biotechnology’s potential in Africa. We promote the safe, responsible, and ethical use of biotechnology and its products by providing a knowledge and communication platform for all involved in the biotechnology sector. This includes: We aim to achieve this by providing accurate information on biotechnology and biosafety, facilitating training, education, research, and development to all stakeholders and members, providing regular information-sharing forums, giving stakeholders the opportunity to engage with decision-makers and government, stimulating the development of biotechnology products and companies in Africa, and linking with entrepreneurs and investors to commercialise biotechnology.
