Come and join us on Thursday, February 25th to find out about the process of transitioning Academic discoveries to the industrial setting. We will focus on Biotech/Pharma because of the significant challenges that are faced in these specific fields. Following a brief introduction, the audience will become acquainted with resources at the University which can aid in this transition and afterwards we will hear the story of T-Cell Factory, a company which was spun out of the NKI (Netherlands Cancer Institute) and subsequently acquired by Kite Pharma. The speakers for the night's program include:

Joris Heus, PhD: Director of IXA @ AMC

Markwin Velders, PhD: VP of Operations @ Kite Pharma E.U. (formerly T-Cell Factory)

Following the presentations, we invite you to stay for Venture Cafe, the premier monthly networking event for Amsterdam's entrepreneur community.

Last but not least, the first 100 registered will receive two free drinks!

See you there!
