Bio Action Plan Workshop with Geoff Ralston

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!

Schedule:
6:00 - 6:30 Meet and mingle
6:30 - 7:00 Fireside chat with Geoff Ralston, SAIFbio Cofounder
7:00 - 8:00 Bio Action Plan Workshop

• Red-teaming 2027 Bio Action Plan milestones

• Brainstorming on Requests for Action

• Fireside Q&A with the SAIFbio team

8:00 - 9:00 Snacks and discussions
