Oct. 11th - Marcadia Biotech: Launching and operating a virtual life sciences company

[IBEN Steering]

Kent Hawryluk talks virtual life sciences with IBEN.

Kent was co-founder and VP of Business Development for Marcadia
Biotech, before it was purchased by Roche. Reports state the deal
could be up to 537 million dollars based on performance, only four
years after it’s founding.

As technology and the market evolves, running a life sciences company
virtually is becoming a popular strategy. Join us for this rare
opportunity to discuss these strategies and the Marcadia story with
one of their founders.

Speakers:

Kent Hawryluk
Co-founder/VP, Business Development & Finance at Marcadia Biotech,
Inc.
Partner at Twilight Venture Partners
President at Tall Ship Capital Company

When: Oct 11th, 2011 5-7pm

This event is at Riley Hospital at the IU Medical Center. There is an
attached parking garage just south of the building. After exiting the
parking structure at ground level on the north side (past the
elevators), entering the main hallway, there is a stairway down about
100 feet on the left hand side (a protective gate is at the top) to
the auditorium. This stairway is past the information desk.
