The new year is (almost) here. We’re planning an exciting lineup of virtual partnering events in the first half of 2021—including BIO Partnering during JPM Week, BIO CEO and Investor Conference in February, and BIO Digital in June.
Through our event portfolio, BIO unites and empowers biotech innovators and their ecosystem to improve lives, but also offers a broad and unbiased venue to seek investment and BD&L opportunities.
But you don’t have to take our word for it. Some of your peers who have attended our events told us a few reasons why they show up.
1. To meet “major global players” and critical new partners.
“Partnering meetings across these events have generated at least 20 fruitful connections. One resulted in an ongoing investment banking engagement. Another 10 introduced me to investors with serious potential that we are continuing to explore—some for our current funding round and some for future funding rounds,” said John G. Edwards, CEO of Drusolv Therapeutics, Inc.
“The one-on-one meeting booking system is one of the best in the industry,” added Olivier Jarry, Managing Partner of Triple Bottom-Line Consulting.
2. To break through the noise.
“A brief, yet impactful presentation is a key to promote and secure strong partnership and differentiate your organization and offerings in the noisy space,” said Ayla Annac, MBA, CEO and President of InvivoSciences Inc.
“As the world is changing, and face to face meetings at big pharma headquarters are not so easy to get, these partnering forums are now the minimum requirement to introduce your promising technology to the major global players in our industry,” added Snehal Patel, CEO of Greenwich LifeSciences.
3. To embark on the next chapter of your company’s story.
“It only takes one interested investor in the audience to change a company’s fortunes, so prepare well and grab the opportunity with your company presentation,” said Darren Cunningham, FCA, CEO of Inflection Biosciences, Inc.
