There are rather limited number of meeting points for the Scandinavian bio-material industry and researchers. This conference attend to provide the setting for Scandinavian industry to meet researchers which are at the forefront of their field. The assemb ly will import some of the best scholars within biomaterial research to attract the most interesting and capital strong industrial actors in Scandinavia. Such combination is intended to create to perfect environment for both our own senior and younger res earchers to network with other potential research funding partners. We (SCSB) are an excellent organization to host such an event and attract key players. The responsibility for the event has been accepted by the department of Biomaterials at the Univers ity of Oslo. We are currently coordinating a 2.1 million Euro project (NewBone) granted by the Eureka-Eurostars program. Furthermore, the department is and cooperating closely with university academics in the US, UK, Germany, Australia and Japan. In add ition, the senior researchers at department of biomaterials have long experience in working with industrial partners. Over the last five years a large industrial development project on fluoride ion implantation of the surface dioxide layer of titanium has been partly carried out by researchers at the department. Today, the department has on-going projects with a major implant manufacturer in Europe (Straumann AG), and with a biotech company in Malmö, Sweden specializing in manufacturing and marketing extr acellular matrices for bone regeneration (Biora AB). A similar event was held in 2011 and the results were great. Amongst the results from the networking is an application for the FP7, where the department of biomaterials is project coordinator.
