Biofilm Alliance Conference
Register For The Conference
Biofilm Alliance 2025 will bring together stakeholders from academia, industry, and regulatory bodies to explore the dynamic interface between pioneering biofilm research and effective regulatory science. A key objective is to foster innovation in biofilm management and control technologies across four broad industry sectors:
- Industrial Processes
- Water Systems
- Food
- Built Environment
Expert speakers from each sector will provide insights into emerging technologies, best practices, and the evolving regulatory landscape. The conference will also feature a multi-sector roundtable discussion that will explore how regulatory approaches can evolve alongside biofilm innovation, with key topics including opportunities for cross-sector collaboration, aligning innovation with safety and compliance, and identifying areas where regulatory clarity can support progress.
We look forward to welcoming you at Biofilm Alliance 2025!
