NIH Proof of Concept Network Annual Meeting this week!

The 2021 NIH Proof of Concept Network (POCN) Annual Meeting is taking place this week tomorrow through Thursday, virtually!

The NIH Proof of Concept Network supports academic innovators at early stage of product development to convert scientific discoveries into biomedical products. This innovative model of public-private partnerships leverages resources from the federal government, academia, and the private sector to identify and develop innovative discoveries with scientific and commercial potential.   

At this year’s annual meeting, you will have an opportunity to hear from federal and academic leaders supporting biomedical entrepreneurship, listen to pitches from innovators supported by the network, and learn how the innovators supported by the program have created more than 100 startups and raised more than $1 billion in private-sector funding.  

Please share with your network and register today!
