Bio-IT World Conference & Expo 2027 is the annual life-sciences data, AI and informatics conference, held in Boston, Massachusetts, and online from 18 to 20 May 2027. Now past its 25th year and organised by Cambridge Healthtech Institute, it gathers researchers, clinicians, data scientists, IT specialists and technology leaders from pharma, biotech, clinical research and healthcare. The programme has 11 tracks in three areas: digital foundations and data ecosystems; AI-driven discovery, design and development (generative AI, AI for drug discovery, AI for oncology and precision medicine); and analytics and bioinformatics. It adds symposia on generative AI tools, AI for biologics and knowledge graphs, technical workshops, a FAIR Data Hackathon, an AI-powered lab-automation track and plenary keynotes. The site cites 3,000+ attendees, 310+ speakers, 150+ exhibitors and 30+ countries.

For a pharma or biotech CIO, CTO or head of R&D informatics, Bio-IT World packs the data-platform and AI decisions that shape discovery pipelines into three days. These include cloud and storage architecture for AI/ML, FAIR data management, generative AI tools and knowledge graphs for target discovery. Leaders can benchmark their stack against peers from major pharma and research institutions, meet 150+ specialist vendors in one hall, and send staff to the workshops, hackathon or virtual sessions to bring practical skills back.

• ✓Digital foundations tracks: T1 Data Platforms & Storage Infrastructure, T2 Data Management, T3 Software Applications & Services, T4 Cloud for AI/ML & Modern Data Science, T11 Pharmaceutical R&D Informatics
• ✓AI-driven discovery tracks: T5 Generative AI, T6 AI for Drug Discovery & Development, T7 AI for Oncology, Precision Medicine & Health
• ✓Analytics tracks: T8 Data Science & Analytics Technologies, T9 Bioinformatics
• ✓T10 AI-Powered Robotics & Intelligent Lab Automation
• ✓Symposia: Generative AI Tools, AI for Biologics, Knowledge Graphs
• ✓Six technical workshops and a FAIR Data Hackathon
• ✓Bio-IT Venture / partnering event
• ✓Best of Show, Innovative Practices and Emerging Innovator awards

• ★Focused on life-sciences R&D data and AI rather than general enterprise AI, so the sessions go deep on drug discovery, biologics and precision medicine
• ★Pairs data infrastructure (storage, data management, cloud) with AI tracks, which suits R&D IT leaders who own both
• ★FAIR Data Hackathon and practitioner awards (Best of Show, Innovative Practices) put hands-on work next to the vendor floor
• ★Hybrid format with live-streamed and on-demand sessions for teams that cannot all travel
