Following on from the 2016 sessions, this year the Education Department, the MAASCC welcome and support structure for contract researchers and the Research Applications and Industrial Relations Department will continue to run a monthly event offering scientists interested in business development the chance to meet a leading figure and entrepreneur in the area of biotechnology. The aim is to encourage those interested in setting up their own company.
