BioProcess International Asia Kyoto

The BioProcess International Asia (BPI Asia) is a leading trade fair accompanied by a conference that has established itself as a key industry event for biopharmaceutical process development and manufacturing in the Asia-Pacific region. As a regional edition of the renowned BioProcess International (BPI) series, it is professionally organized by Informa Connect, a division of the global Informa PLC. Held annually, it provides industry professionals with a high-quality platform for knowledge exchange, networking, and business development.

The venue is the Westin Miyako Kyoto, a modern conference hotel in the historic city of Kyoto, an important hub of biotechnological innovation in Asia. Its strategic location, excellent accessibility, and first-class infrastructure make it an ideal setting for an international audience from industry, research, and technology.

BPI Asia is exclusively aimed at professionals, particularly decision-makers in biopharmaceutical development, manufacturing, and quality assurance. The event covers all stages of the bioprocessing value chain – from cell line development to upstream and downstream processing, regulatory requirements, digitalization, and emerging therapeutic approaches. With strong technical depth, it addresses current industry challenges, including the application of artificial intelligence and machine learning, digital twins, continuous manufacturing systems, single-use technologies, and novel therapies such as cell and gene therapies or mRNA platforms.

The program is divided into several parallel tracks, focusing on topics such as upstream and downstream processes, automation and AI, regulatory strategies, and new modalities. Practical workshops complement the sessions, covering areas such as CDMO/outsourcing, scale-up, and quality management. This structure ensures a strong link to industry practice and offers targeted content for organizations of all sizes, from start-ups to global pharmaceutical leaders.

A highlight of the event is the awards ceremony, which honors outstanding achievements in research and industrial application. The accompanying exhibition presents a broad range of products and services – from recombinant proteins and monoclonal antibodies to advanced technologies for manufacturing complex ATMPs. Leading biopharmaceutical companies, specialized suppliers, and innovative start-ups from around the world showcase their latest solutions and provide insights into tools, technologies, and trends shaping the future of the industry.

With its international scope, thematic clarity, and strong practical relevance, BioProcess International Asia stands out as a central meeting point for knowledge exchange, collaboration, and the advancement of biotechnological innovation – particularly in the dynamic and fast-growing Asia-Pacific market.

The BioProcess International Asia will take place on 3 days from Monday, 20. October to Wednesday, 22. October 2025 in Kyoto.
