From September 16 to 18, 2025, the chemistry and life sciences industries will reunite in Basel for Ilmac. With over 400 exhibitors, an expanded event program, and a vibrant anniversary party, Ilmac celebrates its 66th edition – more forward-looking than ever.
Ilmac Basel 2025 once again brings together professionals from chemistry, pharmaceuticals, and biotechnology at one of the world’s leading life sciences hubs. More than 400 exhibitors from over 20 countries will showcase their latest products and solutions – from industry leaders like Metrohm, Bruker, and Agilent to cutting-edge startups.
This year’s program blends tradition and innovation: the Ilmac Conference features high-level talks on artificial intelligence, sustainable technologies, and biomanufacturing. In the Future of Life Sciences Area, attendees will explore interactive presentations on robotics, green biotechnology, and the future of labs and research. Additional highlights include Job Connect, Pharma Logistics Days, the Women in Life Sciences initiative, and new formats like the Future Talks Corner and Coffee Talks.
A special highlight: the Ilmac 66th Anniversary Party, taking place on the first evening in the “Bambusnest” next to the main entrance – a perfect networking opportunity.
Beyond the physical event, the digital platform Ilmac 365 offers year-round access to exclusive content, networking tools, and a new app-based ticketing and lead management system.
Ilmac 2025 promises three days of innovation, dialogue, and future-thinking – at the heart of Basel, from September 16 to 18, 2025.
