This event, aimed at bioscience firms is a panel discussion that will focus on the creation of new products, services, processes and business models enabled by the latest advances in technology.

Why you should attend

Dr Uday Phadke of Cartezia will set the scene for tackling the challenge of commercialising science and technology-enabled innovation in a systematic way by bioscience firms of all sizes. The intellectual basis of this approach is analysed and discussed in a recently-published book by Uday and Shai Vyakarnam (also on the panel) called: “Camels, Tigers & Unicorns: Rethinking Science & Technology-Enabled Innovation”.

•

The book provides insights and recommendations based on data-driven research, highlighting the challenges of multi-year timescales in achieving commercial success, and clarifying the three chasms that early-stage technology-enabled companies have to cross.
