PHILLY BUILDS BIO +

Philly Builds Bio+: Inaugural Symposium for Life Science Innovation and Development was designed to bring the life science and real estate communities together around the key drivers of the life science industry in Philadelphia (its opportunity and potential), and the opportunities and challenges of life science real estate development in the region.

The Symposium concluded with the introduction of a new membership and programming initiative, called Philly Builds Bio+ led by Nancy J Kelley and Mitch Simpler, Founding Members of Builds Bio+ and other leading members of the Philly life science and real estate development community, who have served on the Steering Committee for the Symposium. Profits from the meeting will be used to support the creation and operation of a Philly Builds Bio+ Initiative.

BUILDS BIO +

The Symposium was organized by Builds BIO+, a 501(c)(3), nonprofit organization that launched a similar and very successful initiative in 2018 in New York City and has since become an active membership organization working to educate and increase the visibility of commercial life sciences opportunities through events, research, reports and educational programs.

Builds BIO+ is dedicated to bringing real estate and life sciences community together, serving as the go-to place to find information about and assistance with growing, building and locating life science companies in the major life science clusters it serves.
