Connecting the life science ecosystem

Building communities.
Enabling innovation.

We’re a non-profit on a mission to build meaningful communities for entrepreneurs building in bio, investors actively backing life science companies and academics looking to break into industry.

INITIATIVES

We build
meaningful communities.

Senior Care

BioEntrepreneur Club

Building a start-up is no mean feat and the value of peer-to-peer support cannot be underestimated. So we’ve built a collaborative community exclusively for the founders and C-suite of early-stage life science companies in the UK.

For Entrepreneurs
Senior Care

BioCapital Network

Investment in all shapes and sizes is fundamental to growing the life science ecosystem. So we’ve established one of the largest investor communities, dedicated to the life sciences, to facilitate the exchange of high-quality deal flow at pre-seed and beyond.

For Investors
Senior Care

BioAcademic Hub

Whether you’re an undergrad or postdoc, breaking into industry can seem daunting. So we’ve developed a collation of insights and resources to demonstrate the wealth of possible life science career options outside of academia.

For Academics
Senior Care

BioInception network

The BioInception Network exists to convene a community of like-minded individuals interested in life science entrepreneurship and signpost resources that may support them in launching their own venture.
