Venue change for our Neighborhood spotlight series on July 16th! Don't miss your chance to be among the first to learn about the transformative plan to connect Long Island City's Court Square with the waterfront, creating a direct line of access to Manhattan https://lnkd.in/eEJ_ytbn #buildsbioevent #neighborhoodseries #lifescienceevent

This is going to be a fascinating conversation. Thank you NBBJ Design and Timothy Johnson for creating this innovative proposal! Pls join us!!!

Don't miss your chance to be among the first to learn about the transformative plan to connect Long Island City's Court Square with the waterfront, creating a direct line of access to Manhattan. https://lnkd.in/eEJ_ytbn The nexus of Long Island City and Manhattan life science subclusters will give rise to a new Discovery District benefiting from an influx of talent and residents attracted to up-and-coming entertainment and cultural destinations in neighboring Queens communities. Join us on July 16 to reimagine the future of Long Island City and Queens as experts share their vision for the borough's most innovative neighborhoods. Guest speakers include: Thomas J. Grech Queens Chamber of Commerce Tim Johnson NBBJ Design Laura Rothrock Long Island City Partnership Frank Casale The Institute of Robotic Process Automation and Artificial Intelligence Jennifer Pogorelec O'Sullivan NYC Football Club Nancy J Kelley Nancy J Kelley + Associates Mitchel Simpler Jaros, Baum & Bolles

🚀 Why Queens? With its unique blend of history, creativity, and innovation, Queens is quickly becoming a gateway to the future. Long Island City, in particular, offers proximity to top academic medical centers, making it a prime location for life science and tech growth. Flushing and Willets Point add to the appeal with their world-class arts, cultural, sports, and entertainment offerings. Join us on July 16th: https://lnkd.in/ephHmFzg

Meet the speakers who will be at the May 29th launch of the Neighborhood Spotlight Series, focusing on NYC’s West End! Join us: https://lnkd.in/eh9U6snB Discover how the West End is becoming a major life science and innovation hub with West End Labs, Hudson Research Center, and new developments along Eleventh Avenue. Connect with prominent life science tenants and explore the neighborhood’s unique amenities, including its proximity to arts, culture, and top culinary spots. 📅 Date: May 29, 2024 🕒 Time: 8:00 AM - 11:00 AM 📍 Location: 125 West End Ave, New York, NY Samuel Waksal, Graviton Bioscience, Paul Apollonio, Priti Balchandani, Matthew Malone, Deepak Vashishth, Nancy J Kelley, Mitchel Simpler #realestatenyc #lifesciencesnyc #innovationhub #lifesciencecommunity

Last angle of the UK golden triangle, on the 3rd day of the Builds Bio+ life science tour, we visited Oxford, home to the University of Oxford, #1 nationally for spinouts. Similar to London and Cambridge, we are observing similar trends in real estate investment and mechanisms in fostering innovation ecosystems, but perhaps at slightly smaller scale than the other 2. So instead of discussing my takeaways on the Oxford ecosystem, here are my overall summary on the UK life sciences golden triangle: 🌱 Ambitious growth plans: ambitious growth plans, “doubling the size of science parks” etc, are heard across the 3 cities. According to Gerald Eve’s Labtrack report, 13.1m sq ft of lab space are in the pipeline. A lot of investment has gone into making space and infrastructure for life sciences both just in new buildings and lab space, but also train stations and travel networks 🌳 Sustainability and building positive human future at the heart of it all: it is great to see how much emphasis and thought given to sustainability. Building forever buildings, design considerations around operations and supply chains, biophilic designs, how to enable users to get to work by bike/ public transport instead of cars etc. it was wonderful meeting so many passionate people who care deeply about fostering the right ecosystem, and the important science that solves the world’s biggest problems. 🧑🧑🧒🧒 Making sure the local communities are on board and benefit from the ecosystem as well: large windows for “science on display”, community spaces for local residents to enjoy, incubators that encourage local communities to become entrepreneurs. How these new spaces contribute to the local community and wider economy such that everyone thrives is hugely important. Some final reflections: 🏥 With a strong life sciences research pipeline, do we have enough infrastructure in our already resource-constrained hospitals to support clinical trials? Do we have the right environment (including clinical trials and reimbursement) for the commercialisation lifecycle of life sciences products? 🇬🇧 UK is not just the research triangle and we have great research institutions in other regions such as Manchester and Newscastle etc, how do we foster more collaboration across clusters? 🧁 We have all the ingredients: world leading universities and institutions, talent, infrastructure and space, funding and professional services and community support. But are they in the right proportion to bake a good cake? Are we missing a master baker?🧑🍳 Thank you again to the many individuals and organisations that curated such an amazing experience: Builds Bio+, Ryan Matenchuk, Nancy J Kelley, Nick Pell, Faaiza Lalji, SC1 London Life Sciences Innovation District, Joseph Casey, The Francis Crick Institute, Cambridge Science Park, Jane Hutchins, Cambridge Biomedical Campus, Alison Wring, ARC Oxford #innovation #lifesciences #PAConsulting

Join us on May 14 at the Liberty Science Center for BioNJ’s BioPartnering Conference. This event brings together executives, investors, academic collaborators and BD professionals from the life sciences industry for 1-1 partnering, Industry Connections (office hours with large biopharma companies), exhibits, company presentations, plenary sessions and lots of networking opportunities. It's the ultimate event for entrepreneurs seeking funding and collaboration opportunities. Register at https://lnkd.in/e3Pn9xVw.

Exploring the timeless charm of Oxford's Radcliffe Square on our final day of the London Life Sciences Study Tour. Unlike modern cities, Oxford treasures its historic architecture, with landmarks like the iconic Radcliffe Camera (2nd picture) standing tall. We wrapped up our journey with an enlightening exchange at the Saïd Business School, University of Oxford, delving into the life sciences ecosystems of London and New York. Thank you to the hosts, sponsors, speakers, and everyone who worked together to make this tour a success! We'll be launching a research report detailing our findings soon!

Day 2 of our London Life Science Study Tour was packed with insights and discoveries! We had the incredible opportunity to explore the renowned Cambridge Biomedical Campus, home to AstraZeneca and numerous cutting-edge facilities. From groundbreaking research labs to innovative spaces, we delved into the heart of biomedical innovation. Stay tuned for more highlights from our enriching journey.
