BioData is the yearly international symposium based in Geneva, where leaders of biopharma and medtech companies meet investors.
BioData has been designed to inform venture capitalists, financial analysts and fund managers responsible for asset allocation of the current issues facing the biopharma and medtech industries.
Keynote lectures and panel discussions cover topics ranging from the role of the European Investment Fund in the promotion of Venture Capital in Europe, to the evolution of cancer markets. BioData will also include a strong focus on medical technology companies.
Invited speakers for keynote lectures and panel discussions include senior management representatives from biotech/medtech companies both in Europe and the United States as well as leading investment professionals from around the globe.
The fifth edition of BioData will take place at the Ramada Park Hotel in Geneva.
Don’t miss the Bio Tuesday sessions: revival of the vaccine market, raising the issue of the avian flu, smart strategies for business development, and a special "robotics, artificial Intelligence, nanotech: from basic research to concrete application".
The full program is available on the BioData web site: www.biodataforum.com
Panel
Moderated by Patrick Nef, CSO & VP Business Development, Xytis Pharmaceuticals
“Smart strategies for business development”
With:
((( Fabio Cavalli, CEO, MondoBiotech
((( Didier Cowling, CEO, Kuros Biosurgery
((( Andreas Emmenegger, CFO, Glycart biotechnology
((( Francesco Sinigaglia, CEO, BioXell
((( Simon Moroney, CEO Morphosys
Business development strategies are becoming increasingly complex. How to learn from recent successes?
The panel shows the specifics of the Glycart exit, the Kuros strategic alliance and the Xytis financing strategies. Whatever the route, it is based on value to the partner. The after-deal situation is essential in many modern deals, and must be specified precisely in the agreement. The negotiation of such agreements can take 12 to 18 months. Those who have lived through this kind of marathon explain what it demands.
Moderated by Madeleine von Holzen, Journalist & Partner, Bontron & Co
“Revival of the vaccine market: therapeutic vaccines, avian flu. Challenges in meeting demand, and new investment opportunities”
With:
((( Jaap Goudsmit, CSO, Crucell
((( Isabelle Nuttall, Programme Manager, WHO
((( Christophe Reymond, COO, Anergis
The Avian Flu epidemic has led to accelerated interest in vaccines. What is the reality of the potential human epidemic behind the media chaos surrounding this issue?
Beyond infectious diseases, there is the question of new markets for vaccines. The vaccine business model has regained interest within the investment community because therapeutic vaccines and vaccines therapy of cancers, addictions and allergies considerably broaden their scope.
Moderated by Benoît Dubuis, Director, Eclosion
“Robotics, Artificial Intelligence, Nanotech, the jewels of the neighboring Rhône Alpes Region. From basic research to concrete applications”
With:
((( Philippe Cinquin, Head of Medical Informatics, University of Grenoble
((( Dominique Gillot, Life Sciences Manager Europe, Middle East and Africa, Hewlett-Packard
((( Stéphane Lavallée, CEO, President and Co-founder of Praxim, PRAXIM
Close to the EPFL, on the other side of Lake Geneva, sits another jewel of Alpine technology: Grenoble. Home to a university with one of the most important applied mathematics departments in the world, and a leader in the fields of nanotechnologies, robotics and navigated surgery, to list just a few, Grenoble has attracted several large international companies. These will explain why they chose this city.
The panel will also discuss the importance of creating a technology cluster in our extended region, from Neuchâtel to Grenoble, with the surprising example of its leadership in the field of bioinformatics.
