November, London - for 16 years, global biotech leaders have gathered at the Jefferies global healthcare conference. It’s spawned a host of satellite events, supported by the Office for Life Sciences and the Mayor of London, under the umbrella of London Life Sciences Week. This year, the London Biopharma Summit will bring together many of the key players, before the main conference events begin.
With inspirational speakers, lively discussions and thought provoking presentations, plus complimentary food and drink from breakfast through to afternoon drinks, guests can use The Shard as a space to meet and discuss ideas and opportunities from morning until early evening.
