A promising semester for YEBN
The Young European Biotech Network (YEBN) is preparing for a busy semester, with a variety of events and initiatives planned through the end of 2024. From launching a new community platform to hosting key events, YEBN aims to support innovation, facilitate collaboration, and address the evolving needs of the biotech community.
One of the key events on the calendar is the return of our BioHorizons series on October 1st. These sessions are designed to explore different career paths in biotech and life sciences, offering a combination of scientific insights and practical applications from our guests. Attendees will hear from experts in the field and take part in discussions that can help inform future directions and career aspirations.
Empowering emerging talent
Another notable event is the YEBN RoadShow, scheduled for October 16th in Barcelona. This event, held in partnership with the European Institute of Innovation and Technology (EIT) Health Innovators Community, will focus on showcasing emerging talent and fostering connections among young professionals, researchers, and entrepreneurs. It will feature interactive sessions and networking opportunities, making it a key moment in the semester’s activities.
Moreover, the YEBN Symposium on November 6th will be a members-only event, offering a deeper look into critical biotech topics and the management of biotech associations. It provides a space for detailed discussions and shared learning, with plenty of opportunities to connect with others in the biotech community. Attendees can expect valuable insights and the chance to contribute to ongoing conversations about the future of the sector.
Additionally, the Scientific Dissemination on December 4th event will bring a new angle to the familiar BioHorizons format, focusing on the exciting and versatile field of scientific communication. This will provide a fresh perspective on how biotech professionals can better communicate their work.
To keep engagement going throughout the year, YEBN is also launching a new Slack community. This platform will enable members to continue discussing biotech-related topics, share insights, and connect with peers and industry experts. It offers an ongoing space for conversation and collaboration, beyond the confines of scheduled events.
Commitment to the community
These activities underscore YEBN’s ongoing commitment to supporting the biotech community by encouraging innovation, building connections, and offering platforms for knowledge exchange.
With a range of events and a new digital community, YEBN is certain to contribute meaningfully to the European biotech landscape. Offering opportunities for learning, networking, and collaboration, YEBN continues to play a key role in shaping the future of the biotech sector.
