The Vereinigung Deutscher Biotechnologie-Unternehmen (Association of German Biotechnology Companies) is a union of companies and institutions involved in biotechnology and related sectors. Our members come from the fields of biotechnology, pharmaceutical technology, bioinformatics, diagnostics, medical devices and laboratory technology.

What we do
VBU is a catalyst for the transfer of research results into competitive products and services. VBU represents a cross-sectoral network, assisting its members in seeking and finding cooperation partners in all areas of the life sciences both on a national and an international scale.

Additionally, VBU cooperates closely with other national and international organisations in the areas of biotechnology, pharmaceutical technology, diagnostics and also knowledge and technology transfer.
