Contact: Marc Dechamps, International affairs director

BioWin was created in July 2006 and today is the key reference in the field of health biotechnology and

medical technologies in the Walloon Region, in Belgium. The cluster brings together Walloon players

who are involved, at every stage, in the research, development and production of innovative products

and services: academic and clinical research laboratories, accredited research centres, large industrial

groups, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), service providers, engineering colleges and

universities, business incubators, investors, policy makers and associated bodies.

BioWin seeks to support Wallonia in implementing its strategy aimed at achieving international

recognition for the excellence of its academic, clinical and industrial research environment in the field

of health technology and medical technologies. BioWin’s industrial members represent a wide range

of expertise encompassing a diverse array of technologies and activities. The industrial ecosystem is

supported by more than seventy specialized service companies (CMO, CROs, biomanufacturing,

biology...).

BioWin focuses on six technological (smart-specialization) target areas for which the Walloon region

has a critical mass of global players:

bio pharmacy

cell therapy

radiation applied to health

medical devices and in-vitro diagnostics

bio manufacturing

data science.

BioWin contributes to the emergence and development of research of excellence in the Region, with

the aim of creating jobs and ensuring the economic attractiveness of Wallonia. In 12 years, the cluster

has managed to federate the actors of health innovation in the Region and to ensure the international

visibility of the pharma, biotech and medtech Walloon ecosystem.
