Beyond Borders: How to Prepare for Partnering Success at RESI London in the “Winter” 

4 Nov

By Greg Mannix, VP, EMEA Business Development, LSN

When was the last time you spoke directly with an investor? Or better yet how often do you have the chance to meet with multiple qualified investors in a single day? 

In today’s challenging investment climate, life science startups can’t afford to slow down their fundraising efforts. Capital is still out there, but it requires thinking beyond borders. 

To thrive in this “winter,” fundraising CEOs must: 

  • Step outside their regional ecosystems 
  • Build global visibility 
  • Connect directly with investors, in-licensors, and strategic partners who are still actively deploying capital 

That is exactly what RESI London 2025 is designed to help you do. 

Why Partnering Conferences Matter 

Partnering conferences, like RESI, give startups a fast, efficient way to meet investors who are aligned with their technology, stage, and strategy. Instead of spending months chasing introductions, companies can meet dozens of potential partners across two or three days. These concentrated interactions save time, reduce travel costs, and dramatically increase fundraising success rates. 

How to Prepare for a Partnering Conference 

Preparation determines success. Before meetings begin, make sure your company profile, pitch deck, and meeting strategy are ready. 

Join Life Science Nation’s free Partnering Tutorial Webinar on Monday, November 10 at 10 AM Eastern to learn how to navigate the RESI Partnering Platform, refine your outreach, and get ready to meet investors.

RESI’s Unique Approach to Partnering 

Unlike most conferences, which offer only basic scheduling tools, the RESI Partnering Platform is built specifically for early-stage life sciences. It features a curated database of investor profiles gathered through direct interviews. Startups can filter investors by type, indication, and development stage to find their most relevant matches. This data-driven approach makes your meetings more targeted and impactful. 

RESI Survival Guide 

To help fundraising executives make the most of RESI, LSN developed the RESI Survival Guide, outlining five essential steps to partnering success. It covers how to identify the right investors, structure your day, and follow up effectively after the event. 

Ways to Partner: Standard vs. Premier Access 

Premier Access attendees enjoy additional benefits, including early access to investor profiles, enhanced visibility, and dedicated support from the LSN team. Whether you choose Standard or Premier, every investor profile on the RESI platform is verified and interviewed to ensure a high-quality partnering experience.
