Fierce JPM Week 2027

The 2027 event is held in San Francisco, California.

The organizer identifies biopharma executives, venture capital and investor attendees, and vendors and consultants.

The organizer describes 500+ people in person and 4,000+ more at a virtual event the following week.

It is most useful for biopharma executives, investors and vendors or consultants chasing deals during the January San Francisco week, since the organizer says 500+ dealmakers attend in person and sessions examine where pharma, biotech and investment are placing their biggest bets. Scientists or early-stage teams without a business development role would get less from it, because the content is deal and strategy oriented, and the 500+ in-person figure is small next to the 4,000+ at the following week's virtual event.

Biopharma and investor audiences at JPM week usually wear business professional or smart business casual, such as suits or blazers, often with dark overcoats for cool San Francisco evenings. Comfortable shoes matter because attendees tend to walk between meetings.
