Small Fish in a Big Pond: The Evolution of LA's Biotechnology Ecosystem

The Los Angeles area is an up and coming biotechnology hub with all of the key ingredients: world-class research and health-care institutions, established large and midsize successful biotech companies, ambitious start-ups, incubator programs, venture funding and the talent to push progress forward. In recent years, smaller companies and venture firms have popped up in the area and excitement is building. Please come and join us to network and hear from a distinguished panel of local players dedicated to making the Los Angeles area the next major biotechnology hub.
