Presenting Companies

Each year at Mid-Atlantic Bio, a number of life science companies are chosen to present before an audience of venture capitalists and industry professionals

This year, the conference will be held October 22-24th at the Westfields Marriott Washington Dulles. Dedicated to promoting the growth of biotechnology in the Mid-Atlantic region, the conference is collectively sponsored by the Mid-Atlantic’s most influential bioscience and investor associations, the Mid-Atlantic Venture Association (MAVA), MdBio/Tech Council of Maryland and the Virginia Biotechnology Association (VaBIO).

Chosen in a competitive process, companies typically represent a cross-section of industry sectors, with most coming from the biotechnology and biopharmaceutical sector and the remainder focused on drug development and discovery, devices, and vaccines. The companies, at various stages of development, range from seed and early stages to later stage growth. As part of the 2008 Mid-Atlantic Bio program, executives from presenting companies will participate in several pre-conference programs, including a networking event and half-day boot camp session to help prepare for the formal presentations before investors and industry attendees.
