Tomorrow is the last day to apply for the Innovator’s Pitch Challenge (IPC) at Digital Redefining Early Stage Investments (RESI), June 8-10. While IPC is a relatively new addition to our conferences, it has received overwhelmingly positive feedback from participating companies and investor judges alike. It is a great way for companies to boost their exposure among the life sciences community, especially to investors and strategic partners. For investors, the IPC serves as a fun and informative way to virtually engage with innovative companies. It is not a surprise that post-IPC follow-ups often lead to productive discussions for potential investment or strategic partnership.

We have received a record-breaking number of applications for this event and are quickly filling up to capacity. If you are interested in a unique, unparalleled opportunity to showcase your technology, please make sure to apply by tomorrow, Friday, May 14!

Digital RESI June Partnering Opens Monday

13 May

By Karen Deyo, Director of Investor Research, Israel BD, LSN

With the next Redefining Early Stage Investments (RESI) conference just around the corner, we launch the partnering platform Monday, May 17. RESI partnering offers companies a unique opportunity to send targeted meeting requests to investors who are a fit for them based on many customizable variables, including product fit and stage of development. This targeted approach leads to a much higher number of quality meetings, along with a much higher likelihood of getting follow-up meetings after RESI.

At Life Science Nation (LSN), we are dedicated to helping companies optimize their experience at our events. We will be offering multiple webinars to attendees, providing tips and advice on how to best navigate the platform and book more meetings. We also offer the below resources, where we have previously written about ways companies can maximize the results to their efforts. Feel free to reach out to the LSN staff at any time with questions – we are happy to help!

Tech Hubs Making the Difference for Entrepreneurs

6 May

By Gregory Mannix, Vice President International Business Development, General Manager Europe, LSN

It is hard to believe, but even during these challenging times, funding and deal-making in the life sciences has not slowed down, and in some sectors, has accelerated. Life Science Nation (LSN) has contributed to this momentum by providing a digital venue for the different players to connect and build relationships to move the needle.

LSN sees that Tech Hubs—incubators, accelerators, life science clusters, etc.—from around the world are making a huge difference in preparing entrepreneurs for success in their projects and have seen a fantastic opportunity to collaborate closely with these groups and their constituent companies. It’s a win-win-win. By facilitating access to resources, including the Investor Database, Redefining Early Stage Investments (RESI) conference series, Innovator’s Pitch Challenge, and industry expertise, LSN is helping entrepreneurs meet the investors and strategic partners they need to meet and save money at the same time.

LSN is currently offering two programs to accelerate Tech Hub involvement and help constituents get funded:

  1. 50% discount on any RESI conference registration for early-stage constituent companies from participating Tech Hubs
  2. Group Fundraising Package ($1,500 per company) for Tech Hubs including:
    1. 3-month access to the Investor Database
    2. Registration at RESI
    3. Participation in the Innovator’s Pitch Challenge

If your Tech Hub is looking for ways to add value to fundraising constituents, connect with the LSN business development team to see which offerings best fit your needs and the companies in your community. LSN shares the mission of global Tech Hubs in seeing promising technologies advance from the lab to the clinic, and into the hands of providers and their patients.
