HBA OLD EUROPE PRESENTS

From Bench to Boardroom

Event description
Have you ever wondered how to make the move from being a scientist to the upper echelons of the corporate world? Have you ever wondered what the top achievers in the life sciences look like? How do you make that decision to leave the lab and pursue an MBA? Come and meet three exceptional scientists:

 - Dr Sophie Kornowski-Bonnet (head of Roche Partnering, Roche, named one of the top 15 women in Biotech 2014 by FierceBiotech)

 - Trudi Haemmerli (formerly VP of global research operations and compliance director in Novartis, now CEO and director of PerioC)

 - Dr Allison Haitz (formerly VP head of global innovation and now VP, global product and applications development in Lonza).

Each speaker will give a short presentation on their ascent up that ladder. Then you get the opportunity to ask them your very own question as their presentations will be followed up by a panel discussion. The evening will be moderated by Jeanne Heinzer of Heinzer Consulting, a communications and leadership expert. Be a part of a truly interactive event and find out what it's really like to make it to the top.
