What opportunities get created as fields converge? What challenges surface as markets, policies, and investing dynamics shift? What new scientific discoveries are potential game-changers? Convergence exists to explore those questions (and many others), with a high-level audience interested in what\’s happening in the rapidly-converging worlds of biotech, pharma, healthcare, medical devices, and the Internet.

The Convergence Forum fosters real debate and discussion among audiences that are every bit as high-level as the speakers.  The programs provide an opportunity for participants to make important new contacts, do business, explore important new directions in research, delve deeply into what it takes to maintain competitive advantage in a fast-changing world, and leave feeling recharged.

Mission
Bring together high-level healthcare players to discuss and debate the most pressing topics of interest to the industry.  Create useful connections and relationship.  Help companies big and small succeed.

What Makes It Different
Our programs deliver a rapid-fire stream of ideas, advice, lessons-learned, and important insights – not a parade of 15-minute company presentations. They are not your typical investor conferences – they are inivitation-only gatherings designed for people who make news in healthcare innovation.  The program is specifically designed to also allow time and space to foster deals among participants.

Audience
Life sciences executives and company founders; heads of R&D; strategy executives and insurers; hospital research, innovation and licensing executives, chief business officers; venture capitalists; investment bankers; and partnership execs at pharmaceutical companies.

Takeaway
Participants will exchange ideas with industry leaders, develop useful connections with a select group of colleagues, and lay the foundation for future business dealings.
