Bio Innovations Midwest 2026 is a trade show in Omaha, NE.
More detailed information about this show will be added soon.
The event connects over 400 bio-pioneers. Last year the organizers facilitated over 800 meetings — a 100% increase since the 2024 launch event. The audience comprises bio-developers and producers, chemical manufacturers, consumer brands and intermediates, community enablers, investors and financiers, and suppliers.
Attendance is by Delegate Pass, purchased online.
The organizers recommend bringing at least two people from your company to make the most of the event. Passes can be purchased via the event's Buy Pass page. Pricing tiers rise as the event approaches, so early booking secures the lowest rate.
The event launched in 2024 and has grown quickly, facilitating over 800 meetings in its most recent edition — a 100% increase since the 2024 launch event. Originally branded Bio Innovations Midwest, the show is expanding its scope for 2026. As Bio Innovations Midwest expands to become Bio Innovations North America, it invites 400+ bio innovators, brands, chemical manufacturers, feedstock providers and policy makers to explore opportunities to scale home-grown bio innovations into commercial-scale production. The event is owned and operated by World Bio Markets Ltd. It is held in partnership with regional and national bodies including the State of Nebraska, Bio Nebraska, the Greater Omaha Chamber and BioMADE.
The event takes place on 9-10 September 2026 at CHI Health Center Omaha, located at 455 N. 10th Street in downtown Omaha, Nebraska.
It is dedicated to scaling and commercializing industrial biomanufacturing in North America. It is designed for bio-developers and producers, chemical manufacturers, consumer brands and intermediates, community enablers, investors and financiers, and suppliers looking to meet new partners, secure investment and scale faster.
The event is built around high-value, pre-arranged, commercially focused 1-2-1 meetings rather than traditional networking. Two weeks before the event, attendees access an online meeting planner to view profiles and pre-arrange 20-minute meetings, and an on-site concierge team helps ensure meetings take place.
Passes are purchased online via the event's Buy Pass page. A standard Delegate Pass is $1,250, and a discounted Startup Delegate Pass is $750 for qualifying early-stage bio developers (TRL 6 or below, fewer than 20 full-time employees, and annual revenues below US$10M). Pricing rises as the event approaches, so booking early secures the best rate.
CHI Health Center Omaha is about 3.5 miles (roughly a 10-minute drive) from Eppley Airfield and within walking distance of the Old Market district. The venue offers around 4,500 parking spaces, and numerous downtown hotels are nearby, including the Hilton Omaha, which connects to the venue by sky bridge.
