From Lab to Market and Patients: Growing Texas' Life Science and Biotech Future

Texas' statewide economic development plan, Bigger. Better. Texas., names biotechnology and life sciences as a target sector for the state's growth. This facilitated roundtable, led by Dr. Anna Sizova, Founder and Chair of Ginkgo Health Fund, brings together the people building that sector. We'll discuss what it takes to turn Texas research into thriving companies: commercializing university discoveries, accessing capital, developing talent, and connecting Texas innovation with global partners.

True to our mission of advancing the people who are advancing health, Ginkgo Health Fund brings Texas health innovation to the world, and the world's brightest minds to Texas.

Who should join: life science and biotech founders, scientists and researchers, university commercialization and tech-transfer leaders, investors, and economic development partners.

You'll leave with: new connections across the Texas life science ecosystem, practical insight from peers, and momentum to carry into the evening's Austin Venture Crawl.
