​BIO would like to walk through three new offerings to BIO members:

1. BRIDGE – Given the rapidly evolving scientific and regulatory ecosystem, it is critical to have a real-time understanding of any shifts in regulatory predictability, efficiency, or regulator expectations. To address this gap, BIO is introducing BRIDGE (BIO Regulatory Issue Data Gathering & Engagement) to move from anecdotal feedback to a more structured data-collection framework that captures member-reported data on regulatory issues impacting the timely review and approval of an innovative drug or biologic regulated by the FDA. Through BRIDGE, BIO will systematically aggregate member data, identify trend-level regulatory challenges, and engage FDA as needed to improve visibility into areas of recurring friction.
2. Investor Connect Plus – An exclusive investor access program in partnership with LaunchBio for BIO members. This program facilitates targeted one-to-one meetings with institutional and strategic investors actively deploying capital. These monthly efforts will connect Launch Bio’s national network of curated investors with member companies and create meaningful pitch opportunities.
3. Tracxn – Another new partnership, Tracxn offers complimentary access to a database of 250K+ active global investors. A valuable tool to help you identify, screen, and connect with the right partners for your fundraising goals.

Rising service agreement costs and shrinking support from original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) have created a growing challenge for life science organizations. Many labs are stuck juggling multiple contracts, vendors, and renewal cycles — losing both time and money along the way.

This webinar explores an alternative approach: centralizing lab equipment service events under one provider. You’ll hear from experts at SU Group, a company with decades of actuarial data on lab equipment performance, and from Joe Dragavon, Director Core Facilities and Shared Instrumentation & Research and Innovation Office Director, Advanced Light Microscopy Core BioFrontiers Institute, who successfully implemented this model and realized both cost savings and efficiency gains.

Attendees will walk away with:

• A clear understanding of the challenges with today’s service agreement landscape
• An introduction to a centralized, data-driven model for managing equipment service
• A real-world example of how this model works in practice and the benefits achieved
• Practical considerations for evaluating whether this approach is right for your organization
