Making the connection
Sealing the deal, finding the right collaborator, uncovering innovation and new opportunity - it's all about people and relationships. BiotechBikers brings together “bike-minded” biopharma and life science professionals in a unique networking community based around group rides, meetups and other social events
Introducing BiotechBikers
The social cyclist
Innovation, progress and problem solving depend on people meeting, building relationships and exchanging ideas. This is especially true in the life science industry, where interaction with colleagues is key. Cycling and socializing go hand-in-hand and is the perfect way to network. Looking for a way to combine it all, Mark Farmery, a biotech business developer and keen roadie based in Sweden, founded BiotechBikers in 2017.
A global community
BiotechBikers is a global community that brings together biopharma, biotech and academic life science professionals from all over our industry who share a passion for cycling. We are dedicated to fostering new relationships, building collaborative networks and promoting inclusion, diversity and a healthy and active lifestyle.
BiotechBikers is non-profit and supports a number of charitable causes.
A driven and motivated team
The driving force behind BiotechBikers are a group of seasoned and well-connected professionals from biotech business development and life science partnering disciplines, who are also highly motivated cyclists. Want to get involved? Just let us know!
Our activities and events
We organize a variety of activities, many including invited high profile guests, ranging from meetups, group rides and larger events scheduled around conventions and conferences. Rides vary in length, the pace will always allow for conversation and the essential coffee and cake stop will be built in.
In 2020 we held our first virtual group ride, using the Zwift platform. We'll continue to develop this through 2021 and plan for real-life meetups and events again when we can.
