TRENTON, N.J., Sept. 21, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — BioNJ has released the speaker roster, featuring thought leaders from world-renowned life sciences organizations, for its Ninth Annual C-Suite Summit, entitled “Transitioning to the ‘Next Normal’: Biopharma’s Role in Addressing the COVID-19 Crisis and What’s Next,” taking place virtually Friday, October 15, 2021, from 8:30 a.m.-2:15 p.m.
After closely monitoring updates from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and State and local health agencies, as well as speaking with leading epidemiologists, BioNJ has decided to present this year’s full-day C-Suite Summit virtually, instead of its originally planned in-person format.
Realizing the desire for many of our Members to have the opportunity to network live in a safe environment, BioNJ is excited to kick off the Summit with an in-person Networking Reception the evening before, Thursday, October 14, from 4:00 p.m.-6:00 p.m. at the Basking Ridge Country Club. Following safety guidelines, including requiring on-site proof of vaccination (masking is recommended), attendees will enjoy networking, cocktails, dinner food and first-hand views of the beautifully manicured fairways of the Club’s golf course and 260 private acres. “Each year, BioNJ’s C-Suite Summit brings together life sciences executives representing a wide breadth of companies from early to late stage, public and private, and revenue and pre-revenue for timely discussions impacting C-Suite decision-making in bringing new innovative treatments to market,” said BioNJ President and CEO, Debbie Hart. “As we know, COVID-19 has brought unimaginable global disruption,” added Hart. “Therefore, this year’s program is dedicated to taking a look at the ‘Next Normal’. Our all-star roster of speakers will take a deep dive into this past year’s successes and challenges, while discussing the next wave of innovation across the value chain and sharing thoughts on how the industry might deepen and scale its commitment to delivering a positive impact for society.” Hear from and engage with:
