Life Sciences: Let's go!

Remember when Andrew from API put out a public challenge to run a Life Sciences Summit back in March?
 
Well it’s happening! 

And Andrew was back at TNT to celebrate.  He even picked up the bar tab as scientists, entrepreneurs and investors celebrated the official launch of the inaugural Startup TNT Life Sciences Summit Powered by Applied Pharmaceutical Innovation.   

“I loved learning about the great research YEG scientists are doing,” commented one of the team members at Future Fields – there must have been half a dozen PhDs in YEG!
 
In YYC, official estimates put the crowd at well over 60! 

“I arrived at 6:05 and there was already 25 people there,”  Jade reports

“I’m glad Briggs let us take over half the bar” noted one attendee from W21C
 
The crowd included the manager for business development for Seed Funds at Innovate Calgary and the CEO of a YYC startup that raised $4.7M in August to develop next generation stents.

We look forward to working with and investing in life sciences companies this winter!  If you know any great life sciences entrepreneurs, encourage them to join us:
