UPCOMING 2008 EVENTS |
On February 9,
2008, Haas Healthcare and BioBusiness hosts the 2nd Annual
HAAS BUSINESS OF HEALTHCARE CONFERENCE.
The Conference promises to be a extraordinary event, attracting more than
350 attendees and speakers, and bringing together a wide range of perspectives
while focusing on the theme of "Innovation for a Better Tomorrow" - In essence,
what are you doing today to prepare for tomorrow's health care challenges? Panel
discussions will span a broad range of major health care hot topics.
We are planning
on having our annual “Spring Mixer” in San Francisco on Thursday, April 19
(likely from 6-8pm or so). This event will be a bit more casual than last
spring’s successful mixer but will be structured to facilitate discussions
between students and relevant industry attendees making the event valuable to
all.
In addition to
the Spring Mixer, we will host several other events to facilitate discussion
regarding the latest developments in the healthcare and biotech industries as
well as to encourage networking between Haas students, business professionals,
and members of the greater Bay Area academic community. Future H2B2 events will
include reiterations of the following events that Healthcare@Haas and the
Berkeley BioBusiness Association hosted last year:
|
BioEntrepreneurship Roundtable and Venture
Capital Forum |
| Description: |
The event will include a networking reception followed by a dinner featuring
our keynote speaker, Karen Talmadge, Co-Founder of Kyphon, a medical device
company currently being acquired by Medtronic for $3.9 billion.
Additionally, partners at De Novo Ventures will present real cases from
startups to engage the audience in a discussion on overcoming the challenges
of building a successful life science company in the startup environment.
BERT is organized to promote
innovation and entrepreneurship in the life sciences. By bringing
together industry and academic experts, we hope to foster meaningful
discussion and to inspire new ideas. Attendees will include venture
capitalists, entrepreneurs, attorneys, physicians, scientists, as well as
alumni, professors and graduate students from schools and departments across
UC Berkeley, UCSF, and the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory.
Our event was completely sold out last year, so you are encouraged to
register, via the following link, as soon as possible. Registration
will close on November 21, 2007; tickets for industry experts will be $85,
tickets for students will be $45 and tickets for Haas students will be $35.
