About this event

Bae HQ brings its scaling panel to Edinburgh with HSBC Innovation Banking and CMS equIP, aimed at founders working out how to grow past the early stage. Three speakers. Kuan-Chuan Pao, co-founder and principal scientist at Outrun Therapeutics, a healthtech unlocking the therapeutic potential of protein stabilisation, backed by M Ventures. Elijah Nazarzadeh, founder and CSO of Nebu-Flow, rebuilding nebuliser technology for biologic drugs, backed by Scottish Enterprise and SIS Ventures among others. Dr Poonam Malik, a serial entrepreneur, board chair and investor across biotech, medtech and healthtech. Networking with the speakers and the Bae HQ community follows. Registration is by host approval and the exact address goes to registrants. Bae HQ is the UK ecosystem for Asian-heritage founders and investors. Why go: three people who have actually raised and scaled life-sciences companies, in one room - which Edinburgh gets less often than its research base would suggest. Best for founders raising now or soon, and investors covering healthtech.
