What to look forward to
This interactive biosecurity meetup will bring together people working on pandemic prevention, AI biorisk evaluation, and synthetic DNA screening to red-team the 2027 Bio Action Plan and develop Requests for Action. Highlights will include a fireside chat and Q&A with SAIFbio cofounder Geoff Ralston and the SAIFbio team, hosted by Tessa Alexanian of Sentinel Bio and Joey Bream of safely.bio.
Inside the event
We're hosting a meetup for people working on biosecurity in the Bay Area. Think: pandemic prevention technology, evaluating AI for biorisks, better KYC for synthetic DNA.
This meetup is an interactive workshop focused on the Bio Action Plan, a coordinated philanthropic, private-sector, and government response to build defenses that outpace offensive biological capabilities. The Bio Action Plan is a project of SAIFbio, a new nonprofit founded by the partners of SAIF Ventures.
Note: this one starts an hour earlier than our previous meetups, so that we get more time with the SAIFbio folks!
