In October 2026, the Netherlands and Belgium will jointly host the Big Science Business Forum. This popular two-day event typically attracts over 1,000 representatives from European high-tech companies and major research organisations.

BSBF is built around connections – delegates can pre-arrange B2B meetings with representatives from BSOs, industry leaders and other institutions. Here, decision-makers, procurement teams and technical experts come together. The event also features an industrial exhibition with more than 120 stands, offering European industry and international stakeholders a prime platform to showcase their capabilities.

BSBF brings together the entire European Big Science community, offering an important platform for Swedish companies and research groups to engage on an international level.
