How do we turn world-leading biological research into breakthrough therapies, transformative companies and real-world impact?
This Thursday Gathering, delivered in partnership with the Advanced Research + Invention Agency (ARIA), explores its Sculpting Innate Immunity Opportunity Space, bringing together researchers, founders and innovators at the forefront of one of the most exciting areas of modern science. Together, we'll explore how bold research moves beyond the lab through collaboration, investment and commercialisation.
The evening's headline panel, Turning Complex Biology into Commercial Reality, features voices from ARIA, academia and the startup ecosystem discussing the opportunities and challenges of translating cutting-edge biology into innovations that could reshape the future of healthcare.
