June 15, 2017 – Aquatis Hotel Lausanne

While registration has only been open for a few weeks, the conference is filling fast, with a quarter of all places already reserved! This exciting conference has a new feature – the start-up pitches.  These will provide a great opportunity to find out about the innovation occurring in Switzerland, as well as what is needed to make it as a start-up and what’s involved in successfully financing your venture.

“Challenges in Financing Life Science Ventures”, will give participants the opportunity to connect with start-up friendly organisations, such as Inartis, BioAlps and VentureLab as well as providing opportunities to gain expert insights from start-up founders, including Geneuro, that have already paved the way with their IPO journeys.

Big Pharma will be there too. You’ll hear from both VC and BD&L functions, who will explain their financial language differences, helping you to know how to approach the right organisation at the right time!

We haven’t forgotten the importance of networking, and as with any Swiss HLG event, there will be plenty of opportunities for you to connect with speakers and attendees. If you are a Swiss HLG Member, we’ve taken this a step further by arranging a member’s only evening on the 13th of June, where you will have the exclusive opportunity to meet the speakers, organisers and sponsors of the Summer Conference, before the crowds arrive.
