BIODISCOVERY TORONTO TECHNOLOGY SHOWCASE

On May 6, 2008 BioDiscovery Toronto showcased a great roster of young companies/scientists that were interested in presenting innovative technologies to potential investors from the pharma, biotech and the VC community. Our showcases allow investors to interact face-to-face with our founders or scientists who have developed break-through technologies at Toronto’s world-class hospitals or universities. The presentations are non-confidential and if you are interested in learning more about these technologies please contact the presenters listed below. 

If you would like to attend our next showcase please e-mail me at sdegrandis (at) biodiscovery.ca. The showcase is an invitation-only event. Invitees will be notified in advance concerning their attendance at the next showcase planned for late Septmeber 2008.
