Presenting Opportunities
Presenting at the forum offers excellent opportunities to showcase your company to some of the leading global investors and corporates. It will offer you the opportunity to communicate your projected capital raising plans or simply help you in finding the right partner for your business.
Presenting companies from Europe and the US will benefit from specially designed panels and keynote addresses from leading industry figures as well as access to some of the leading analysts and investors from Europe and beyond. This year, we aim to expand the audience and provide once again, opportunities for executive-level networking, deal-making and strategic partnering.
The forum is recognised as the leading international stage for those interested in investing in the biotech and life science industry and is highly transactional, drawing together an exciting cross-section of early-stage/pre-IPO, late-stage and public companies with leading investors, analysts, money managers and pharmas. Supported and designed by leading figures within Europe’s bio industry, this event will once again be covered by our regular media partners.
