OFFICIAL INVITATION LETTER

The Executive Committee is delighted to invite you to Glasgow to participate and share in the 11th World
Biomaterials Congress WBC2020 19-24 May 2020. You will experience the exciting city of Glasgow, steeped with
culture and history, as well as the state-of-the-art facilities at the Scottish Event Campus (SEC) on the banks of the
River Clyde. The Congress promises a diverse and interesting programme, an international forum for the presentation
and discussion of cutting-edge research related to the interactions of biological systems with engineered, synthetic
and natural materials. It is an occasion to meet, listen, discuss, share knowledge and bring together inspired people
from within the biomaterial’s ecosystem.

We welcome industry to leverage the opportunity to build and maintain relationships with our global expected
delegation of over 4000 early career researchers, prominent senior investigators, academics, scientists and other
representatives from biomedical companies. We hope the Congress will provide a forum to exchange scientific ideas,
inspire new research, and new contacts for closer collaboration, so that we can, together, define the future for our
young (and not so young) researchers who are today’s reality and tomorrow’s future.
