EVENT SUMMARY
The Discovery Foundation and the Student Biotechnology Network are delighted to kick off the 2015-2016 season with our annual Building Biotech Event. This year, with Building Biotech: Challenges and Opportunities in the Global Bioeconomy, we hope that the stories that are shared and ideas exchanged inspire you to continue to reach for the stars.
If the success of previous events is anything to go by, this evening is an excellent opportunity to re-connect with other enthusiastic students and industry professionals, while gaining insight and perspectives on the local life sciences industry over a delicious three course dinner.
