2026 iFAB Biomanufacturing Summit

Join the iFAB Tech Hub for an all-day summit focused on biomanufacturing and precision fermentation! Through dynamic panels, innovation showcases, site tours, and networking opportunities, participants will explore how precision fermentation, bioprocessing, and agricultural innovation intersect to strengthen national security, drive economic growth, and increase domestic manufacturing capacity.

Strategically aligned during the 7th Annual Champaign-Urbana AgTech Week, the iFAB Biomanufacturing Summit will take place one day after the University of Illinois Research Park’s AgTech Summit.
