Czech biotech stands on stronger foundations than many still assume. Nearly 430 entities, CZK 97.5bn in annual revenue, and growing investor attention show real momentum. But further growth will depend on one thing: turning strong science into investable, scalable projects. #Biotech #Czechia

Boston is not just a location. It is a concentration of capital, experience, and decision-making. For Central European projects, that is not an abstract benchmark, but a different operating environment. Through IOCB Boston, we are already part of that ecosystem. #Biotech #TechTransfer #Boston

Not every important step in life sciences starts with a new concept. Sometimes, it comes from making existing methods work better. Great to see LAM-X develop VerdiBlot and continue precise work on nanomaterials — thoughtful innovation in a part of science that often stays out of the spotlight.

Bio€quity Europe is almost here! From 4–6 May 2026, Prague will welcome investors, biotech companies, and tech transfer professionals for several days of partnering and discussion. For IOCB Tech, it is an important space where research, investment, and application meet. #BioEquity #Biotech

Some of the most important advances in life sciences are tools, not therapies. Great to see LAM-X introduce VerdiBlot, a new bioanalytical method building on Western blot with the aim of making protein analysis more reliable and easier to interpret. Congrats. #Bioanalysis #LifeSciences

Czechia is not lagging in research investment. Around 2% of GDP goes into R&D, and the scientific base is strong. The challenge is what comes next: turning research into companies, products, and market presence. That is where IOCB Tech works. #TechTransfer #Innovation

🇱🇺 In Luxembourg, Petr Zelenka’s Elegance of the Molecule opened a window into the moment when a scientific idea first takes shape — inspired by discoveries of Czech chemist Antonín Holý. It’s a reminder for Europe’s innovators to keep an eye on the new stories emerging in Czechia. #TechTransfer
