Through good times and challenging times, BPNG has been supporting your networking and career goals.

Core to the BPNG brand are the letters C and I for Connecting In which forms the universal symbol for power. We network via LinkedIn Groups and host in-person informal events at the Chapter level. Our motto is, “We are all connected.”

Bio Pharma Networking Group (BPNG) is a not-for-profit, volunteer all-inclusive life and health sciences professional community that actively promotes the "real power" of networking. We serve people in various disciplines and corporate cultures who value key-relationship building at all stages of careers. BPNG encourages a crossover effect for valuable lead and resource sharing at our casual monthly events where people can exchange information, trends and ideas.

    Build Professional Relationships

    At BPNG Chapter events you will connect with friends and meet new colleagues. Our casual events, held at local establishments, are a great way to network whether you just want to get out for a night or have recently relocated to a new biotech hub.

  • "I joined NCBPNG about a year and a half ago, and quickly realized the networking potential that it offers in a casual setting. I not only made connections that led to new leads, job opportunities, and collaborations, but also friendships that will last for a long time. As a steering committee member focusing on sponsorships, I take pride in bragging about how awesome NCBPNG is and find event sponsors in return!"

  • “As a sponsor of one of the PABPNG meetings, we felt that the ROI was justifiable for the exposure that we received. It was refreshing to see a good mix of attendees from various disciplines of the Bio Pharma industry. We will definitely consider future sponsorships in the various chapters of the Bio Pharma Networking Group.”

    —Business Development Manager

  • "I’ve had the pleasure of sponsoring and attending the Bio Pharma Networking Group (BPNG) events, and it remains one of the most valuable networking events in the pharmaceutical and life sciences industry. BPNG brings together professionals across all levels and disciplines—from R&D and clinical to operations, regulatory, and talent acquisition—in an atmosphere that’s both welcoming and purpose-driven. It’s more than just a place to exchange business cards; it’s a community built on meaningful connections, collaboration, and shared industry insight. If you're in the pharma or biotech space and looking to expand your network, discover new opportunities, or just stay informed on industry trends, I highly recommend getting involved with BPNG. It’s been an outstanding resource for me and many of my colleagues over the years."

    Expand your Knowledge

    The BPNG crossover effect at our events is an ideal method to learn more about the life and health sciences industry. Plus, we have a rich history of guest speakers, sponsorships and partnership programs intended to provide you with insights outside of your individual expertise.

  • “I love how BPNG events bring together professionals from across the healthcare and life sciences industry, including pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, medical devices, and more. You will meet a diverse range of people, from researchers to recruiters, and experts in various fields. The events offer a great balance of structured networking and casual conversations, making it easy to connect with peers and stay updated on industry trends. I have found these gatherings invaluable for expanding my network and advancing my career. Highly recommended for anyone in the field!”

    —Associate Director, Business Development

  • "Professional networking allows me to build connections with people in my industry, which can lead to business relationships, career advancement and advice, industry insights, and the ability to stay up to date on current trends. With PABPNG and NJBPNG over the past several years, I have had the positive experience of being both a sponsor and attendee."

    Become a Leader

    As we relaunch BPNG Chapters (post-pandemic) we are looking for individuals seeking to build their leadership skills. We have opportunities on Steering Committees and are open to creating NEW Chapters in biotech hubs. As well, we are looking to partner with other life and health sciences organizations dedicated to supporting industry professionals and STEAM opportunities.

  • “A coaching relationship grew from my involvement on the NYBPNG steering committee. As a senior hiring manager in the diagnostic market, I was able to carefully guide a PhD medical researcher from the bench to a medical liaison position who is now a successful field director in big pharma. BPNG networking has a rich history of life changing success stories.”

    —Executive Director, Diagnostic and Medical Device Global Corporations

  • “I got my first job in the pharmaceutical industry at a networking event hosted by PABPNG in 2018. It allowed me as I started my career numerous opportunities to learn and network. I recommend this group to up-coming professional to this day.”

    —Medical Science Liaison at Global Pharma Brand Leader

"I've been with the NCBPNG community almost as long as it has existed. There is an energy amongst the attendees of our events that I find is often hard to replicate. With a minimal agenda, the focus is on making genuine connections, face-to-face, with people who you may not normally come across in your normal work time. Seeing those relationships form and strengthen over the years has been rewarding."
