Looking back at our first Biotech Booster National event

The event was focused on the new Biotech Booster National Growth Fund Program for knowledge valorization. We  discussed how Biotech Booster will contribute to that future by collaborating with all stakeholders to enhance valorization, entrepreneurship, and investments, thus accelerating and improving the reach of innovations in society.

The program started with a welcome message from Robbert Dijkgraaf, Minister of Education, Culture, and Science.

Speakers were:

  • Nettie Buitelaar, CEO Biotech Booster
  • Constantijn van Oranje, special envoy Techleap
  • Dan Jing Wu, CEO & co-founder VivArt-X
  • Linda Dijkshoorn, CCO & founder EV Biotech
  • Jan de Kerpel, co-head corporate finance bij Van Lanschot Kempen
