ABIC Foundation History The first Agricultural Biotechnology International Conference (ABIC) was held in Saskatoon in 1996. A second conference in 1998 resulted in the formation of an organization that would oversee the ABIC Concept, and, to secure the continued success of the ABIC series. Directors of the ABIC Foundation were drawn from several countries. The Foundation was set up as a not for profit corporation, based in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. The Foundation's goal is to ensure ongoing opportunities for continuous learning and networking within the agbiotech community through the Agricultural Biotechnology International Conference. The Foundation performs advisory, promotional and supportive functions for the conferences. As the Foundation shapes the ABIC concept, it strives to position the Conference at the forefront of agbiotech innovation. Through its various activities, the Foundation raises ABIC's international profile while fostering the ABIC standard of quality. With email, phone and fax resources,the Foundation is able to communicate with its Board of Directors when needed at very low cost. The use of email to review documentation in a timely manner enabled the Foundation to be formed in a cost effective manner. The ABIC Foundation is administered by Ag-West Bio Inc. whose office is located at 101 - 111 Research Drive, SASKATOON, SK, Canada S7N 3R2. You may contact the Foundation by e-mail in care of Ag-West Bio Inc.
