Day 1 Spotlight: 6 Premier Early Stage Tech Hubs Attending The First Coast Innovator’s Gathering

By Ashley Durrer, Marketing Manager, LSN The First Coast Innovator’s Gathering on Day 1 is focused on tech hubs and companies from the First Coast: DC, MD, PA, NJ, NY, RI, CT, and MA. We encourage all global tech hubs and their constituents to attend. Tech hubs and global attendees will be able to sign up for partnering meetings ahead of the conference, making sure they setup ideal meetings with global investors and strategic partners that are a fit for their technology and stage of development. Tech hub members are also eligible to apply for free to the First Coast Innovation Challenge to pitch in front of a panel of investors. The deadline to apply for the Innovation Challenge is July 27, 2018. These tech hub programs represent a microscopic portion of the unbelievable innovation and talent spinning out of the northeast corridor, within life sciences from Biotech, Medtech, Diagnostics, Therapeutics, and Digital Health.

Richard Bendis, President and CEO at BioHealth Innovation Inc. “BHI is excited to support the inaugural First Coast Innovator’s Gathering as we need to leverage all the assets within the First Coast Region in order to find new ways to collaborate more effectively.”

William Brah, Director at UMass Venture Development Center “We go out of our way to facilitate visas for international students creating life science companies in Massachusetts, bringing an international audience to the industry.  Several life science companies from our incubator successfully connected with investors through the RESI Conference and LSN Investor Database. We continue to encourage our members to broaden their investor target list to include investors all around the world who attend regular RESI Conferences—just as we bring in international students.”

LSN Summer Reading Series

Chapter 4 Categories of Life Science Investors This week in the summer reading series, we explore the current categories of early stage life science investors. As a result of the significant changes the investor landscape has undergone in the past few years, many traditional players have moved downstream to later stage investments or out of the space entirely, and new faces have stepped in to fill the void. Understanding what motivates these different groups and how they operate is crucial when looking for a successful financial partnership. Chapter 4 of  The Life Science Executive’s Fundraising Manifesto  “ Categories of Life Science Investors ” explains how and why the funding landscape has changed, the types of investors who are currently funding companies, and, in general, the approach these entities take toward investing. Click here to download/print the PDF. We hope this text proves to be informative. Next week we will turn the focus inward with Chapter 5: “Knowing Who and What You Are, and Where You Fit.”

Click here to download chapter 4 The Life Science Executive’s Fundraising Manifesto  helps scientists understand the fundamental skills needed to brand and market their companies. It discusses how to use a consistent message to achieve compelling results from a fundraising campaign and how to aggregate a list of potential global investors that are a fit for your company’s products and services.
