Culture media, fermentation equipment... Over 90+ initial procurement needs revealed! Want to secure bio-manufacturing orders? Join this conference [Full agenda updated].

The tailwinds of the bio-manufacturing industry are shifting from technology validation to large-scale deployment.Synthetic biology, bio-based materials, biotech ingredients for medical aesthetics, and pharmaceutical manufacturingThe surge in capacity expansion across the industry is intensifying, driving explosive demand for upstream and downstream procurement—from early-stage R&D pilot testing and scale-up to commercial-scale production.

2026 (2nd) Yimao Bio-Manufacturing Industry Conference & Exhibition (Summer) will be held in Shanghai from 8/27 to 28.The conference comprehensively covers core areas including medical aesthetics, bio-based materials and green chemistry, food, agriculture, and AI empowerment.

Based on registration data analysis, a significant number of attendees are registering with clear purchasing intent.Unmatched purchasing power and extensive category coverageThe potential for supply-demand matching between upstream and downstream sectors is becoming increasingly evident. This data not only confirms the robust demand across the biomanufacturing value chain but also sets high expectations for transactional matchmaking and business collaboration at the upcoming Yimao Biomanufacturing Conference.

Key Insight: Procurement demand targets the core of industrial expansion.

The procurement demand model clearly reveals a market in active development.Culture Media / Reagents / ConsumablesDemand ranks first, accounting for 47.4% of registrations. Nearly half of the applicants have explicit procurement intentions, reflecting the intensity and activity of R&D and pilot-scale operations in the biomanufacturing sector. Many innovative companies in cutting-edge fields such as synthetic biology, cell therapy, and gene therapy are currently in frequent experimentation and process development phases, creating sustained and critical demand for high-quality culture media, reagents, and various consumables.

At the same time,Fermentation/Cell Culture EquipmentDemand accounts for up to 44.9%, establishing a core procurement model driven by both equipment and consumables. This strong demand aligns precisely with the critical transition in China's biomanufacturing sector from laboratory R&D to pilot-scale expansion and mass production. A wave of newly built or expanded production lines has created urgent need for key equipment such as bioreactors and fermentation tanks.

Additionally,CDMO/CROutsourcing services ranked among the top with a 33.3% share, highlighting deeper industry specialization as more companies leverage external expertise to accelerate projects and achieve cost savings and efficiency gains.
