Nonprofit foundations increasingly are making investments in life science companies to accelerate the pace of commercialization of technologies that may provide new therapies and cures for patients. No longer solely focused on making grants to researchers, these foundations are creating a range of investment vehicles to achieve their missions.
LaunchBio, along with our partners BioLabs North Carolina, the North Carolina Biotechnology Center, NCBIO and the Council for Entrepreneurial Development, are welcoming eight investment professionals from disease foundations to discuss their investment philosophies, explain their fund and deal structures, and describe how they are using deep scientific knowledge to validate early stage technologies and syndicate with other investors.
We encourage all who are interested in learning about this emerging community of investors to join at the North Carolina Biotechnology Center (note location for this event only).
