BIA regional focus: advanced therapies in the South West
Thursday 22 April 2021
The BIA is delighted to announce a South West regional event, this year taking place in virtual format, which will focus on advanced therapies in the South West of the UK.
There have been lots of exciting developments and success stories from the region in recent months, across the full developmental pathway, from developing very early stage start-ups through to expanding well-established companies.
We will see presentations on a number of these successes, followed by a panel discussion in which we will consider why the South West has been at the centre of all of these stories, and what can be done to maintain and build on these in future.
The afternoon will end with a chance to network remotely using Remo, a platform designed to mimic in-person networking as closely as possible.

We are excited to bring you this BIA regional focused networking event in virtual format.
You will be able to join us online to network and, similar to an in-person event, move from virtual table to table to mingle with other attendees. The platform we will be using also includes useful features which will allow you to message directly with other attendees and share LinkedIn details to connect. There is also a general chat for all attendees.
During the presentations/discussion you will be able to submit and vote on audience questions and we will try our best to cover everything in the time allocated.
