ABOUT THE #Sachs_BEF FORUM

The 20th Annual Biotech in Europe Forum is recognised as the leading international stage for those interested in investing and partnering in the biotech and life science industry. This highly transactional event draws together an exciting cross-section of early-stage/pre-IPO, late-stage and public companies with leading investors, analysts, money managers and pharma licensing executives. Supported and designed by leading figures within Europe’s pharmaceutical and biotech industry, this event will once again be covered by our regular media partners.

Under current circumstances including travel restrictions we have decided that for the first time #Sachs_BEF will be held in a digital format.
