Welcome from Dennis Ford
Life Science Nation (LSN) is thrilled to be back at the annual healthcare conference week for our second RESI San Francisco event. It’s the largest RESI conference yet, with over 700 registered attendees, including over 300 early stage global investors!
We’re delighted that RESI has garnered this enthusiastic audience during a very busy week for the life science industry. We’ve expanded the bandwidth of RESI Partnering in order to offer more opportunities for RESI attendees to connect with each other face-to-face. By using the RESI Partnering system to nd fellow attendees based on t, you can nd meeting partners who align with your focus. With that match as a basis, RESI is a venue for compelling conversations between startups and investors in the life science space.
LSN would like to extend our thanks to the speakers who are participating in RESI’s two Investor Panel tracks, and the presenters of the RESI Workshops. We’re very glad that you’re here to share your expertise with the entrepreneurs and investors who attend RESI.
We’d also like to bring your attention to the RESI Innovation Challenge. The RESI Innovators are showcasing cutting-edge life science technologies in poster displays throughout the exhibit hall. Inside your RESI badge you’ll nd ve tokens of RESI Cash you can use to “invest” in the most promising of these technologies. Take the time to invest your RESI Cash wisely, and join us at the evening reception as we announce the winners!
Thank you for joining us and making this the biggest RESI yet. We’re excited to be here for the rst stop on RESI’s 2016 tour. We hope to see you later this year in Houston, Toronto, and Boston. Until then, enjoy the show!
