Nucleate Rhode Island - Inside Business Development & Venture Capital
About the Event:
Nucleate RI’s PATH:INSIDE (Professional Advancement and Training Hub) panel is designed to empower life sciences innovators, both student and faculty founders, with the tools to navigate the full journey of venture creation. Beyond translating research from bench to market, this event explores how to scale a company, pursue institutional and philanthropic funding, and align scientific innovation with commercial strategy. Join us to learn what happens after the spinout, and how to build a life sciences venture that lasts!
