The Biennial of Industrial Design (BIO) is a comparative international exhibition of industrial design, visual communications and design concepts. It is one of the few events in the world to present, every two years, an expert selection of industrial design products and to promote, through well designed products by Slovene and foreign designers, contemporary trends in world industrial design.

Since the first BIO event in 1964, twenty successful international presentations of design have been organised. Due to the international character of the Biennial and a broad network of contacts with international organisations and individuals that have offered their collaboration and support, BIO is one of the most important events in Central European design. The independent international selection committee that selects the exhibits and the distinguished international jury that selects the award-winners guarantee high-level professionalism and prominence of the event.

On 2 October 2008 the 21st Biennial of Industrial Design will open at the Architecture Museum of Ljubljana.

Entry deadline : 11 April 2008
