The Biennial of Industrial Design is a cultural event directly linked to various sectors, naming industry, the economy, the design profession, innovation, education, and development. Through its work the BIO Secretariat brings the activities of industry and the profession closer to the general public – spreading the awareness about the importance and development of industrial design, promoting Slovene design abroad, and presenting contemporary trends in the world of industrial design at home. In addition to the main BIO exhibition, many accompanying events take place during the period of the biennial – exhibitions, lectures, panel discussions, creative workshops for children and young people, and educational workshops for adults, among others.
Decisions on all essential elements of the exhibition, with the exception of the judging, are taken by the organising committee that consists of representatives of the Municipality of Ljubljana, the Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Slovenia (GZS), the Ministry of Culture, businesses, designers, and the Museum of Architecture and Design.
The Biennial of Industrial Design was founded as an exhibition which also demonstrated the capacity of the economy from the point of view of design. In the past, the biennial exhibitions were held at various locations in Ljubljana. In 2004 BIO 19 was held for the first time in the vast exhibition space at the Fužine Castle.
The 20th Biennial of October 2006 presented over 350 exhibits by designers from 17 countries (Slovene designers contributed 111 works), including Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Croatia, Italy, Japan, China, Germany, the Netherlands, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, and Sweden. Works were presented in three groups: Regular industrial products, Visual messages, and Design projects. The venues of the biennial varied (in the centre of the city, at the castle, etc.). A fringe programme was also organised, including panels, exhibitions by foreign designers, presentations by publishing houses, and meetings of designer organisations, held in different cities across Slovenia.
The 21st Biennial of Industrial Design in 2008 was modernised in many ways. The BIO awards were redesigned, and the entire event received a new corporate identity, designed by GigoDesign, one of the award-winners of the 20th Biennial. For the first time in the history of the BIO the international Selection Committee examined all entries equally, be it industrial design and visual communications items or design concepts. The online registration for BIO 21 was possible for the first time – out of 421 submitted works only 126 works from 18 countries were exhibited. In addition to the main exhibition, an interesting accompanying program was prepared.
The awards of the Biennial of Industrial Design (BIO Gold Medal, the BIO Quality Concept Award, the BIO Honourable Mentions, and the BIO Award for a Student Work) are selected by a prestigious international jury and presented at the opening ceremony. They represent a recognition of quality in design and all awarded works of the Biennial of Industrial Design are included in the international design collection of the Museum of Architecture and Design. Find more about the highest award in the article BIO Gold Medal.
The BIO Secretariat consolidated its orientation and independence in 1977 when it became an associate member of the International Council of Societies of Industrial Design (ICSID). Furthermore it obtained the membership in the Bureau of European Designers' Associations (BEDA). It is also actively participating in the International Council of Graphic Design Associations (ICOGRADA) and is partner in SEE project (Sharing Experience Europe: Policy Innovation Design).
In 2008 the Biennial of Industrial Design expanded its international promotion and cooperation to incorporate some of the most important international design organisations. BIO 21 was therefore advertised in all countries of the European Union and also in the USA, Australia, New Zealand, China, South Africa, and Japan. During the exhibition BIO 21 hosted a presentation of Design Management Europe Award, attended by the most notable experts on design and management in the world.
In autumn 2009 the travelling exhibition of BIO 21 award-winners was showcased in Tallin, Estonia in cooperation with the Estonian Association of Designers (EDL) as part of the Design Night 2009 event, and in Riga, Latvia in cooperation with the Design Information Center (DIC) as part of the Riga International Young Designers Biennial. The exhibition showed also the selection of Slovene works that were on display at the 21th Biennial of Industrial Design.
