In Saskatchewan, Global Biotech Week is coordinated by Ag-West Bio, with the support of a local organizing committee.

What is Global Biotech Week?

BIOTECanada, Canada’s biotechnology industry association introduced the first National Biotechnology Week in 2003, encouraging provincial industry associations to create industry and outreach events. The goal was simple: to increase awareness of biotechnology and to celebrate science.

The City of Regina and The City of Saskatoon have proclaimed the
week of September 20 to 27, 2025 as Global Biotech Week! ​
