Hyderabad, Feb 17 (Maxim News): Chief Minister Revanth Reddy said BioAsia stands as proof of Hyderabad’s success as a life sciences hub. He expressed confidence that BioAsia held in Hyderabad would soon be recognised on the lines of the World Economic Forum organised in Davos.
He made the remarks after inaugurating BioAsia 2026 at HITEX on Tuesday, along with IT & Industries Minister D. Sridhar Babu. The Chief Minister highlighted Telangana’s strengths which will support its rise from being a global vaccine capital to become global life sciences capital — strong vision
and clear policy, availability of highly qualified human resources, and great educational institutions. He said Hyderabad is a global hub for Global Capability Centres, with excellence in research and design.
