Questions people ask

5 answered

The 2027 meeting starts January 9.

The 2027 meeting is at Four Seasons Hotel San Francisco in San Francisco, California.

The stated audience includes biotech and pharmaceutical CEOs, R&D heads, healthcare academics, and life science investors.

It is most worth attending for biotech and pharma executives, R&D heads and life science investors who value off-the-record conversation with senior figures, since the speaker list includes the CEOs of Moderna, Bayer and Roche Pharma alongside former FDA commissioners Robert Califf and Janet Woodcock. Early-career scientists, vendors and anyone seeking a broad open exhibition or technical workshops will get less from it, as the format is a closed, invitation-style leadership meeting at the Four Seasons Hotel San Francisco.

Executives and investors at leadership meetings in a Four Seasons hotel usually wear business attire, such as suits or blazers with open collars, with San Francisco's cool January weather calling for a light overcoat.
