Investors forum

Hosted by Johnson & Johnson Innovation

Young companies active in the life sciences industry, pitch your company and/or innovations at the Dutch Life Sciences conference. Increase your visibility, earn PR and connect to collaboration partners and investors.

The Investors forum is an exciting opportunity for those young companies (< 5 years) looking for equity capital and/or partnerships with companies and institutes across the life sciences value chain, from biotech, medtech and pharma companies to financiers and universities. The forum offers excellent opportunities for presenting your company to Venture Capitalists, corporate- and regional investment funds and discuss your business strategy.

Participate in the Investors Forum and grab your chance to meet with interesting partners, initiate strategic alliances or tap into the international financing networks.

Participating investors 
The Investors Forum enables you to evaluate new investment opportunities and to meet with the management of the most promising life sciences companies, start-ups as well as established ventures.
