More than 100 investors and licensing partners have already confirmed for RESI JPM 2027, and we are on pace to pass the 850 who attended last year
That number deserves a second look. Most conferences report total attendance, which is mostly other companies. 850 is the buy side alone: venture capital, corporate venture, family offices, angel groups, strategic investors, and pharma business development teams. People with mandates and checkbooks, in one room, during the one week of the year when the entire industry is already in San Francisco.
Meet the Confirmed Investors
RESI JPM runs in person on January 11 and 12 at the San Francisco Marriott Marquis, with three additional days of virtual partnering on January 13, 18, and 19. It is LSN’s largest conference of the year.
Why Density Is the Product
The hard part of early-stage fundraising is not the pitch. It is access.
Institutional calendars during JPM Week are locked months in advance, and an early-stage company without an existing relationship generally cannot get on them. The companies that do well that week are the ones who were already in the conversation.
RESI was built to change the math. Instead of chasing a handful of meetings around the city, you walk into a room with hundreds of active investors and licensing partners and you select who you want to meet before you arrive.
What Is Coming to RESI JPM 2027
The confirmed group spans the full early-stage ecosystem: venture capital, corporate venture arms, family offices, angel groups, strategic investors, and pharma and medtech business development. Mandates cover therapeutics, diagnostics, medical technology, digital health, and platform technologies, across preclinical through Phase 2.
How to Get the Most Out of It
- Partnering meetings. Our system lets you filter the investor audience by stage, indication, geography, and check size, then request meetings directly. You build your own schedule rather than hoping for a hallway encounter.
- The Innovator’s Pitch Challenge. Present to a live investor panel, get scored feedback in front of the room, and put your company in front of people who are evaluating in real time. Applications close on Wednesday, November 11.
- Three virtual partnering days. January 13, 18, and 19 extend your reach to investors who could not travel, including a large international contingent who partner with us remotely.
