RESI JPM San Francisco will once again be a showcase for cutting edge technologies from distant regions of the globe. Because the RESI conference draws top life science investors and strategic partners, regional technology hubs see it as a chance to give their constituents direct access to funding opportunities and expansion into new markets.

Previous delegations from places including Korea, Quebec, Chile, Taiwan, Israel, Ontario and France have used RESI as a springboard for their companies. And this upcoming RESI JPM San Francisco 2023 will be no exception.

This RESI, the Israel Economic Mission to the West Coast, USA, and the Israel Export Institute are proud to showcase some of the companies making waves in the digital health field. They include companies with innovative technology focused on AI, Machine Learning, Voice Recognition, Big data, AR/ VR, Robotics, with disruptive solutions for Diagnostics Digital Imaging, Precision Medicine, Decision Support Systems, Clinical Workflow Management, Telemedicine, Remote Monitoring, and Smart Surgical Equipment, and many more.

Likewise, the Brisbane Economic Development Agency is sponsoring a cohort of hot MedTech and Digital Health companies from the Australian state of Queensland to come to San Francisco and showcase the technologies being developed in that part of the world that will have an impact everywhere. The members of the cohort have participated in a custom 2-month long educational program together with Life Science Nation that will culminate in San Francisco, where they will be well prepared to pitch and partner with global life science players.

Be sure to check out these technologies in the Innovator’s Pitch Challenge poster board section at RESI and say hello to their founders. They’ll be happy to tell you their stories.

Life Science Nation was thrilled to have Hush Blackwell at RESI Boston in September as a Silver Sponsor. Their sponsorship included a workshop, Leveraging IP for Growing an Investable Medtech Company, hosted by Hush Blackwell Partner, Bryan Stewart. This panel highlighted the importance of IP leverage and included testimonials and insight from some of their current clients. Bryan stated:

“The Husch Blackwell team had a great experience sponsoring the RESI Boston conference. We featured founders from funded companies restor3d, Trio Labs, and protect3d on our panel presentation titled ‘Leveraging IP for Growing an Investable MedTech Company.’ Our team and our panelists enjoyed the industry-relevant RESI presentations, the pitch competitions, and networking with others in the RESI and LSN ecosystem. We found sponsoring RESI Boston immensely valuable – we will be back sponsoring RESI JPM!”

Husch Blackwell will be at RESI JPM in San Francisco as a Gold Sponsor and will be hosting another panel during our packed 1-day in person event on January 10, followed by two virtual partnering days.
