Event Description

Copenhagen Life Science Summit ’18
Are you an individual interested in Life Science and want to explore and expand your knowledge of opportunities in academia and the industry?

Synapse – Life Science Connect will be hosting the inaugural Copenhagen Life Science Summit ’18 (CLSS) on Friday May 18th.

Here, five prominent, skilled and visionary professionals will elaborate on subjects relevant to life science. The distinguished speakers will discuss the current state of the life science industry as well as academia and what the future is likely to hold for both. Subjects such as how established life science companies can utilize startups to innovate, the role of academia in the life science environment and how to build a successful biotech-startup will be elucidated.

The speakers are invited to share their inputs on these subjects from an inspiring personal angle. The conference will also include a Fireside chat with the theme "Benefits of interdisciplinarity within the life sciences". Moreover, there will be ample opportunities for the participants to network and socialize with each other and get in touch with some of our partner companies who will be present at the summit with stands.
