The conference will come to Atlanta, GA, in [early] 2024. RESI South is expected to draw a crowd of over 500 bioscience and medtech entrepreneurs and 500 premier investors, family offices, and key executives worldwide.

“Dennis Ford, CEO of Life Science Nation [stated], ‘I have seen firsthand the incredible opportunities abounding in the Southeast U.S. with a plethora of colleges, universities, and hospitals, fostering life science research and development. This is combined with an amazing array of incubators, accelerators, regional and governmental entrepreneurial programs, and world-class Bio Clusters supporting startups across all phases of development.  LSN’s global partnering network wants to tap into these seven states’ technological and innovative firepower.’”

LSN’s Erica Ku told us to stay tuned for the date, still anticipated to be in late March or early April.
