Beating the Odds: Growing Biobusinesses Today will take place on Thursday 3 October 2013 at Clare College, Cambridge

This one-day conference, instigated by the Centre for Entrepreneurial Learning at Cambridge Judge Business School and independent biobusiness consultant Miranda Weston-Smith, will bring together an all-female speaker line-up of biobusiness leaders to explore new approaches and strategies for enterprise, funding and growth.

The event has attracted support from a number of key incubation centres keen to encourage member companies to gain fresh perspectives on ideas, look at opportunities for growth and get up-to-date with industry sector opinion leaders.

Martino Picardo, CEO of Stevenage Bioscience Catalyst, said:

We’re encouraging our members to attend this conference to inspire entrepreneurial drive, develop networks and enable the exploration of new approaches and strategies for funding and growth. It offers an excellent opportunity for the cross-fertilisation of ideas through interactions with a high calibre mix of industry experts and academics. This entirely fits with our remit to nurture and grow start-ups and early stage ventures.”
