Are you busy Saturday evening?
The BIO International Convention officially begins Sunday, May 6 (remember when BIO conferences started on a Monday, and Sunday was maybe going down to register?), with a full slate of activities, topped off by the Welcome Reception from 7:15 pm to 9 pm. (For a complete list of BIO events, click here.) But there are things to do on Saturday, too, for those who show up in Boston early -- most notably, I'd suggest, is another installment of Nature Biotechnology Bioentrepreneur Roundtable Series. We've held these both in the US and in Europe, and this will be our seventh. The topic is "Biotech Investment: The Importance of Taking the Lead," and it will be moderated by Nature Biotechnology editor Andrew Marshall, with a six-member panel consisting of insiders from around the globe. It's being held Saturday at the Marriott Boston Copley Place, beginning at 5 pm with a reception to follow. For more information, download the PDF here. What else are you going to do Saturday evening? The Red Sox are out of town.
