Testimonials

"The French Biotech Tour follows a relaxed but effective forum to connect a disparate group of companies with synergistic partnering goals. [...] It was an effective way of establishing connections with selected companies from France as well as on a local level. On a personal level, I thoroughly enjoyed the meeting which was very productive and well run. We are following up with a number of companies from France for a more in depth discussion of mutual interest." - Arkesh Mehta, CEO, Avanti Therapeutics, 2011

"We do a lot of road show and presentation to industry players to raise funding and meet prospective strategic partners, but never, were we able to meet with 7 qualified prospects in one single day. [...]Not only the attendees where of great quality, but the organization of the event was spotless, there was no wasted time at all." - Didier Perez, COO & CFO, Eureka Genomics Corp., 2011
