The Industry Panel Series is a four-part series dedicated to bringing together a coalition of leading industry experts to discuss topics that are critical to the industry today. This year’s series will present the financing and partnership opportunities available to our burgeoning industry while examining how to identify, close and manage the right deal. Our Panel discussions are interactive, informal, and intend to be a conversation more than a presentation. We aim to get you something you can act on. So bring your questions with you!
The ChemFusion Series is a three-part series dedicated to bringing together a coalition of key stakeholders from industry and academia to engage in a dialogue surrounding the critical role of chemistry in the push from concept to commercialization and more specifically chemistry areas related to biopharmaceuticals. The Series will feature lecturers and/or panel discussions from academic and industry labs who will offer their perspective on the application of chemistry to their research areas.
Emerging companies find it increasingly difficult to reach the right person when seeking funding. It is equally difficult for companies with funds to allocate to wade through countless proposals in search of the right opportunity that aligns with their investment strategy and in some cases their mission. The “Meet with…” Series will not only provide greater access to a pipeline of emerging life science companies for Foundations, Angels, Investors, Governmental Agencies, Big Pharmas, and others who have partnering and/or financing opportunities. But will also provide a unique opportunity for organizations with funds to present on their strategic financing objectives to a targeted and very captive audience.
You may have overlooked your IP strategy to focus on your product development or funding opportunities. But poor IP strategy can lead to a significant decrease in your companies value and thereby repel potential investors and partners, even lead to devastating litigation.
The BioCenter/Orrick IP & Regulatory Series will give you the keys to a successful IP strategy through 4 interactive workshops presented by Orrick's seasoned legal team.
The one-day BioBriefing class provides a concise overview of modern biology concepts and an introduction to industry technology and terminology.
This class is for those with limited time who want a succinct summary of the science and applications.
The Business Development Series is produced in partnership with Orrick, our Premier Legal Sponsor that provides pro-bono assistance to our client companies. The Series is composed of one "Primer", followed by two in depth workshops. Please note that workshops are by invitation only. However, only executives who have registered for the Primer will be considered for attendance.
The Open House Tour is an opportunity for anyone interested in the BioCenter to tour the facility and the Core Labs, to meet the management, and learn more about the BioCenter history and its clients. The Tour starts at 2:30 and lasts around an hour depending on attendance and how curious you are!
