FountainBlue's Connections events provide entrepreneurs and executives with networking and educational opportunities centered around business and technology trends and other topics of interest to senior executives in Silicon Valley.

This Month's Topic: Life Science Success Stories

Silicon Valley is world-renown for its technology, its business success stories, and its innovative and entrepreneurial culture. While we're still reaping the benefits of the age of the personal computer and the age of the internet, the new buzz in the last few years has been on the convergence of bio, nano and information technologies. This month's panel will focus on life science success stories and consider how life science companies differ from more strictly high-tech companies, which key success factors for life science companies, and other thoughts, while sharing stories of how individual companies managed to succeed in this challenging new industry.
