Biotechnology Entrepreneurship Boot Camp
8th Annual Biotechnology Entrepreneurship Boot Camp
Sunday, June 17 - Monday, June 18
Sponsored by: Pepper Hamilton LLP

Biotechnology Entrepreneurship Boot Camp is an intensive, two-day program that walks you through the necessary steps and gives you the skills to transform technology and invention into a viable company. Since its debut in 2005, the Boot Camp has evolved to address a broad range of issues faced by entrepreneurs from the managerial, scientific and academic communities. You will develop the insight and energy required for entrepreneurial success as you learn to:
- Think strategically in selecting and managing projects
- Plan for expeditious and cost-effective management
- Understand the requirements of all the involved stakeholders
- Oversee the essential components of the commercialization process
Each year, faculty from the event’s host region bring fresh insights to the program, while a core faculty returns to present material that has proven effective throughout the years. Historically, this core has included the Boot Camp founder and co-chair, Professor Arthur Boni of the Tepper School of Carnegie Mellon University; Professor Stephen Sammut of the Wharton School and Burrill & Company; and Jeffrey Libson, Partner, Pepper Hamilton LLP and Lecturer at Wharton School Health Care Management Program.
