Under My Thumb: Regulation and Healthcare Disruption

Monday, March 14
5:00PM - 6:00PM

JW Marriott
Room 201-202
110 E 2nd St

Some startups advance from dream to reality in a matter of months. In the heavily regulated life sciences industry, however, innovators and entrepreneurs face an uphill climb over hurdles that can be costly, uncertain, time-consuming, and in many cases terminal. This panel brings together diverse and sometimes opposing viewpoints--from a healthcare industry veteran, a former FDA regulator, and a healthcare venture investor--to explore why some healthcare ventures succeed where others fail.
