On June 7 and 8, the third edition of the International Microbiome Congress took place in person, solidifying its role as a space for knowledge transfer on the use of microorganisms applied to agriculture. Additionally, this edition included a third day of the Congress, which was held virtually on June 9. The objective of the congress, held this time at the Víctor Villegas Auditorium in Murcia, is to foster connections among producers, industry, technicians, researchers, and administrators specialized in plant biology and biotechnology applied to the agri-food sector, as well as to highlight the particularities of this new development area for present and future agriculture.
This third edition had over 1000 in-person professionals and 500 virtual attendees from 32 nationalities. In this context, BIOVEGEN was present at the Congress and seized the opportunity to officially present the project, along with promoting it through the distribution of pamphlets and the exhibition of the roll-up.
