BIO-Europe Spring 2027 in Lyon: where to stay near Eurexpo

BIO-Europe Spring 2027 is Europe's flagship partnering event for the biotechnology industry. From 5 to 7 April, Eurexpo Lyon welcomes more than 3,700 executives, investors and institutional players looking for licensing, financing and co-development deals. The event runs as part of Spring Innovation Week, alongside LSX Investival Europe, packing four full days of meetings and networking under one roof. The partneringONE platform lets attendees schedule one-to-one meetings ahead of the event, with instant scheduling opening on 22 February 2027. The programme features panels with leaders from companies such as Eli Lilly, Merck, Novo Nordisk, IPSEN and Johnson & Johnson, plus company presentations, workshops and sessions on advanced therapies, diagnostics and technology platforms. For those planning accommodation, Eurexpo Lyon sits in Chassieu, roughly 10 km from the city centre, so booking a hotel early is strongly advised — especially during Spring Innovation Week, when hotel demand in Lyon concentrates around the venue and the transport corridors toward Saint-Exupéry airport.
