A Look Back at BIO

In June, industry leaders convened in Boston for the BIO International Conference to highlight new trends and innovations in biotech. IC Hub Director Chelsea Schiller connected with spokes, joined a panel to discuss the Boston area’s innovation ecosystem, and moderated a conversation with former Massachusetts Secretary of Health and Human Services Kate Walsh and Massachusetts State Senator Robyn Kennedy about their work to drive investment in women’s health.

Check out Chelsea’s key takeaways from BIO. If you attended BIO, what were some of your highlights?
