Case studies of successful life sciences ecosystems

Innovation is not built alone in the corner of a lab, or from the desk of a CEO with a disruptive mind. It can start there, sure, but innovation is and remains the product of a plurality of stakeholders, each contributing their part. From the spark of an idea, to technical knowledge around entrepreneurship, to elevating the science with trusted resources and commercial power: researchers, tech transfer teams, investors, startups, biotechs, pharma companies are all components necessary to nurture the ground for innovation, and collaborate together to translate science to industry. What makes an ecosystem successful? Drawing from case studies, experts will expand on the components of their ecosystem, the measures in place to hold the different actors together, and how their experience can inspire others.
