- Best Use of Emerging Technology
- Best Non-Therapeutic R&D Company
- Best Technology Transfer Deal of the Year

It is generally accepted that new deal flow leads in Life Sciences, whether investment, partnering or sales arise through an individual’s own network, either directly or via referral by a trusted contact. Ensuring your company’s value proposition is highly visible and articulated to the ecosystem can thus be highly important.
For investors, Pharma and experienced advisors, the award judging process ensures only the best are selected to present, reassuring all that the line-up merits their attention, connection and support.
