Director Imperatives: Imperative Issues in Life Sciences

Life sciences continue to be a strength of North Carolina’s economy, ranging from innovative technologies emerging from the state’s universities to global manufacturing facilities, and a sophisticated network of specialized services including legal, accounting, marketing, regulatory consulting, contract research and contract development and manufacturing organizations.

The risks and rewards remain high for directors of life sciences companies of all types. The NACD Research Triangle Chapter is pleased to offer an overview of the geopolitical factors shaping the industry, including a global view from EY’s Beyond Borders biotechnology report and an update on the 5-year strategic plan from the CEO of the NC Biotechnology Center. The presentations and audience Q&A will be followed by a panel discussion of leading CEOs, investors and directors sharing their perspectives on how not only to survive but thrive in a volatile business environment.

The event will conclude with a networking reception.
