NGeneBio to Attend BIO USA, Seeking Expansion of Asian Genomics Data Business
Partnering with Tempus AI, Roche, and Others
NGeneBio is set to participate in a global bio partnering event to expand its genomics data business and seek overseas collaboration opportunities.
On June 18, NGeneBio announced that it will attend the '2026 BIO International Convention (BIO USA),' which will be held in San Diego, United States, from June 22 to June 25.
During the event, NGeneBio will hold partnering meetings with global companies and institutions in the fields of precision medicine and artificial intelligence (AI) data. The participants will include Tempus AI, Guardant Health, Foundation Medicine, Roche, Google Cloud, and Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSKCC), among others.
Jenny Song, the recently appointed Chief Data Officer (CDO), will attend the event to lead discussions on collaboration with global companies. CDO Song plans to highlight the clinical value of Asian genomics data, opportunities for joint research, and data supply, presenting various partnership possibilities.
NGeneBio explained that most existing global genomics databases are centered around Western populations, which is increasing the value of Korean and Asian data. The company stated that, on the occasion of BIO USA, it aims to expand collaborations in global drug development and precision medicine based on Asian genomics data.
