The Wharton Biotech Conference 2026, presented by the Penn Biotech Group (PBG), brings together industry leaders, forward-thinking professionals, and driven students to explore critical challenges and breakthrough innovations shaping the future of biotechnology while strengthening the Philadelphia biotech ecosystem.
