Nucleate Netherlands Ecosystem Showcase
The Nucleate Netherlands Ecosystem Showcase is our annual event that brings together trainees, innovators, entrepreneurs, investors and industry stakeholders across the Dutch life sciences ecosystem.
This year, we will be focusing on highlighting the ecosystem's strengths across the two key pillars of Nucleate - 'Bio' and 'Eco'. Get ready for inspiring keynotes, panels on the bio-innovation landscape, pitches from startups - including the ones from the Global Virtual Activator, and, of course, ample time for networking. 🥂
