The largest biotech gathering on earth lands in San Diego — 20,000+ industry leaders, ~73 countries, and the densest dealmaking floor in life sciences via BIO One-on-One Partnering. For founders, the draw is Start-Up Stadium: ~40 finalists pitch 6-minute decks to investors, venture philanthropy and strategic partners for seed and emerging-company prizes (apply free; deadline mid-February). If you are building a therapeutics, diagnostics, tools or biomanufacturing company and raising, this is the room — and it is in your city this year.
