2024 Biofest Military Tours of San Antonio
Join us on Thursday, April 18th, the day after Biofest Invest, for a day-long exclusive tour, visiting several of San Antonio’s military health facilities.
The military health community is one of San Antonio’s brightest assets, known around the world. This tour is an opportunity to learn about all the amazing research and interact with researchers at our military health facilities around the city.
The goal of this tour is to assist in building new connections and collaboration opportunities between the military and the civilian sectors.

Space is extremely limited due to military security access restrictions. Once the tour is sold out there will not be another opportunity like this in the foreseeable future.
