Speaker: Glen Harris

Get your business cards ready, because this is your opportunity to network with biotech reporters from major media outlets. After a brief introduction, each reporter will join a small table of attendees, providing an intimate setting for networking. Go ahead and ask about how they handle embargos, if they honor conversations off the record, where they get story ideas, and how best to work with them. And don’t worry if your favorite reporter’s table fills up fast – journalists will rotate among the tables, so you’ll get to meet them all. The Burrill Report’s Daniel S. Levine will participate in this session. Note: capacity at this networking session will be limited; seats are first-come, first-served.
