Formed in 1 993, the BIO was created by the merger of its two predecessor trade associations; the Association of Biotechnology Companies (ABC) and the Industrial Biotechnology Association (IBA). The BIO works with the government and the public to promote safe and rational advancement of genetic engineering and biotechnology."}
