Dear Members, Partners & Friends,
 
With many New England residents fully vaccinated now, we look forward to offering our community programs and events with a refocus on people and connections in the real world. 

That being said, FACCNE plans to continue to offer both virtual and in-person events this fall, beginning with the 2021 Annual Life Sciences Panorama which will be hybrid and split in 2 parts:
- A Digital Conference on October 6 at 12pm ET [18h Paris];
- An In-Person Networking Cocktail at Ipsen on October 7 at 6pm ET.

We were honored to start our Fall Program yesterday in partnership with the Consulate General of France which featured two hybrid round tables to initiate exchanges between Maine officials hosted at The Roux Institute at Northeastern University. Portland and French companies joined virtually to explore opportunities for businesses and students. FACCNE would like to thank its Platinum Members who were able to join this private event with the Ambassador of France to the US, Philippe Etienne, and in particular, Sanofi, Ipsen and Natixis IM for their contributions to the dialogue.

While the U.S. travel ban remains in play and led to the postponing of the coming of French delegations to the US originally planned for October and November, we are thrilled that a few of our new members based in France were able to move to the Boston area these last weeks. We look forward to introducing them to our fellow members at the Chamber's traditional Cocktail de la Rentree scheduled on September 23 at the Residence of France. Our warmest thanks go to Consul General Arnaud Mentre for hosting us in his garden.

Without further ado, I let you take note of our upcoming events and encourage you to register as soon as possible. 

Ludivine Wolczik, Executive Director
DON'T MISS OUR FLAGSHIP EVENT
Since its inception nine years ago, the Life Sciences Panorama has grown strong and is now recognized by the life science community as an annual catalyst for knowledge exchange.

The theme of the 2021 event will be: FROM CRISIS TO OPPORTUNITY, THE DAWN OF A NEW ERA FOR INNOVATION IN BIOPHARMA. 

This year, the event will be hybrid:
  • the conference part of the event will be in a digital format on October 6, from 12:00PM to 2:00PM ET, on the Hopin platform
  • the networking session will take place in-person at Ipsen US headquarters in Kendall Square (Cambridge, MA) on October 7, from 6:00PM to 8:00PM ET (if the conditions allow)
