BIO’s 2013 Fly-In will occur March 12-13, 2013, and we are looking forward to another great day of engaging with Members of Congress and their senior staff on the most important legislative issues facing the biotechnology industry.

Attendees meet in small groups with the congressional Members and senior staff of the attendee’s congressional delegation. Each group will be accompanied by a BIO staff representative to all visits.
