iGEM is dedicated to advancing achievements in synthetic biology through education and competition, and to the development of an open, collaborative and cooperative community that strives to find solutions for a healthier, more resilient and sustainable world. Held annually in Paris, iGEM’s flagship event is the Grand Jamboree. This event marks the culmination of iGEM’s yearly activities, bringing together the global members of all iGEM Programs: the iGEM Competition, iGEM Startups, iGEM Responsibility, iGEM Community and iGEM Technology. The Grand Jamboree also assembles researchers, industry reps, startup founders, investors, journalists, experts in governance and policy, and the general public to help chart the future of synthetic biology. Why not come witness the future and interact with tomorrow's synbio leaders? Hope to see you soon!
