Innovation does not always need a lab bench. OBI BioMembership connects founders and bioscience leaders to Oregon’s biotech ecosystem without leasing space. Visibility, access, community. Belong without the overhead.

Great hosting Oregon State Representative Sue Rieke Smith at OBI for an energizing visit. She met with founders from Caravel Bio, EndoRel Biosciences, and EndoSound, then toured the EndoSound lab to see innovation in action. Leaders who listen help ecosystems grow.
