Sponsorship for the SynBioBeta Conference

The National Science Foundation (NSF) intends to negotiate a sole source purchase order with SynBioBeta for the Bronze Sponsorship for the SynBioBeta Conference in San Francisco, CA from October 3, 2017 through October 5, 2017. SynBioBeta is the leading community of entrepreneurs, investors, policy makers and enthusiasts devoted to the responsible growth of the synthetic biology field. SynBioBeta is the only source to host international synthetic biology conferences and events that give anyone the opportunity to meet with the bright minds building and shaping the bioeconomy. As a sponsor, NSF will participate in a workshop aimed at start-up companies in the synthetic biology industry and have an exhibit table, one full conference pass, logo on signage and screen, lead retrieval, an ad in the program guide, and log in event emails and sponsor listing on the event website. The proposed contract action is for services for which the Government intends to sponsor with only one source under the authority of FAR 13.106-1(b). This notice of intent is not a request for competitive proposals. This synopsis is for informational purposes only.
