Winter 2015

 
One month into the new year and so much has happened already, with more to come. This year, Ag-West Bio is gearing up for the 'Olympics' of the canola / rapeseed industry: The 14th International Rapeseed Congress. We are pleased to co-host this important event with Canola Council of Canada. The organizing committee is drawn from hard-working people from within the Saskatchewan Bioscience cluster, and we truly appreciate their dedication.

Another community effort STEMfest 2015 is coming to Saskatoon this fall, a "festival of conferences" hosted by Tourism Saskatoon. Ag-West Bio will be hosting the Manning Innovation Awards Gala in conjunction with STEMfest.
