Apply to Present at the 2026 Startup Showcase


The Summit will highlight some of Georgia’s most innovative life science startups, giving emerging companies the opportunity to present groundbreaking technologies, products, and solutions to a distinguished audience of industry leaders, investors, researchers, and partners. These early-stage ventures represent the next generation of healthcare and bioscience innovation, from novel therapeutics and diagnostics to digital health and advanced manufacturing.


The Startup Showcase, taking place during the luncheon program on August 26, is designed to connect entrepreneurs with the resources and relationships needed to accelerate growth and bring transformative ideas to market. 


All applicants will receive one complimentary registration to attend the 2026 Georgia Life Sciences Summit, providing additional opportunities to engage with industry executives, investors, and ecosystem partners throughout the event.


Selected startups will benefit from a live Q&A session with a panel of investors and industry leaders, including Johnson & Johnson’s innovation team, offering direct feedback and insights on commercialization, growth strategy, and investment readiness.


One selected startup will also be invited to participate in the NewYorkBIO / New York Stock Exchange Life Sciences Showcase on December 10—an exclusive gathering connecting emerging therapeutic companies with New York’s leading financial and investment community.
