Every RESI Conference, LSN holds a fun life science competition - the Innovation Challenge. Thirty early-stage fundraising companies with top-tier life science technology exhibit in a poster-board format for a chance to pitch to investor attendees one-on-one and place as one of three winners voted by conference attendees. Out of our hundreds of applications, how do we choose the top thirty? As the Innovation Challenge application deadline draws near (it is tomorrow folks!), the LSN scientific review team has compiled a list of what we look for in a company and its application.
While the following surrounds the Innovation Challenge application itself, the criteria and the tips we provide are also guidelines for companies to use for their fundraising process. Much of our evaluation and the questions we ask are based on standard criteria that entrepreneurs will face when speaking with investors.
What makes a high-score company?

Biotech and medtech industry executives are drawing up their itineraries for January's healthcare conference week in San Francisco, and over a thousand attendees are expected to join Life Science Nation for our Redefining Early Stage Investments (RESI) Conference in San Francisco on January 9th!
LSN would now like to announce the agenda for RESI San Francisco. Our event will provide a full day of investor panels and workshops devoted to early-stage life science investment topics. RESI features four tracks of content, including the RESI Asia-North America track, which offers attendees the chance to hear directly from investors and strategic partners from across the Pacific who are seeking North American innovation. These panels will be a must-see for any fundraising entrepreneur in the life science sector.

Life Science Nation (LSN) brought the Redefining Early Stage Investments (RESI) conference to life four years ago with the vision of creating a circuit of events focused on bringing together life science entrepreneurs and early-stage investors, from a wide variety of categories, based on mutual fit. One of the most prominent themes we've witnessed, after 15 RESI conferences in cities across North America, is the complexity and evolution of the early-stage healthcare ecosystem. The variety of capital sources, strategic partners and other critical stakeholders in the industry has created an environment where investment groups/firms find tremendous value in working together to finance, scale and exit companies.
Investors are primarily drawn to RESI by the large number of top tier startups that attend, but RESI has become much more than a place for investors to find startups and vice versa. While the bulk of the meetings that take place at RESI are between investors and entrepreneurs...
