Swiss Biobanking Platform (SBP) is the national coordination platform for human and non-human biobanks founded by the Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF). It aims to respond to the increasing needs of researchers regarding sample quality and the interconnectedness of biobanks for research purposes.

SBP was established in 2016 as an independent association with the five Swiss university hospitals as founding members. Our main mission is to offer our partners, on the one hand the biobanks and on the other hand the researchers, a professional support adapted to their needs aiming at a better coordination and harmonization of biobanking activities in Switzerland.

To this end, SBP has an executive office located in Epalinges which offers advice and specialized services to support its partners in the areas of biological resources management and quality, visibility and sharing of research samples as well as biobank interoperability.
