Education and Networking
Workshops, Seminars and Educational Opportunities
PROPEL and the iBIO Institute offer workshops, seminars and educational opportunities that are necessary for formation-stage and early-stage life sciences companies. These are offered throughout the year at no cost or minimal cost to PROPEL participants and to the community at large. Topics include SBIR/STTR Grant Writing and Basics of Intellectual Property, among others.
Networking
CEO Roundtables offer entrepreneurs and small company senior executives an opportunity to exchange information and brainstorm ideas on how to move their businesses forward in a small, informal group setting with CEOs of successful life science companies of all sizes.
PROPEL provides other opportunities for informal networking throughout the year. These informal events are opportunities for the community to gather together in a low-pressure environment, have a little fun, chat about technology or business breakthroughs, expand personal networks, and possibly plot out the next IPO-worthy idea!
