Virtual Finance Day 2020 - "Corona as a turbo for biotechnology?"

Take a look at the current biotechnology scene together on October 21.10.2020, 14.00 from XNUMX p.m. What does Corona mean for companies, investors and start-ups? How does the current situation affect corporate financing?

You are cordially invited to participate in the live stream on October 21.10.20, 14 from XNUMX p.m. And that with really outstanding participants and topics!

For 14 years now and also at Finance Day 2020, the focus has been on growth financing challenges and solutions for life sciences companies. Participate directly in the discussion with the experts via the chat function!
