Developing new tools to understand biology – a conversation on research, innovation, and entrepreneurship
Sweden has a strong track record of life science innovation. While medtech inventions and drug development tend to get most of the attention, the country has also built successful companies that develop research tools – tools that make it possible to understand biology, create new diagnostic methods, and develop innovative treatments.
You are warmly invited to a conversation about the development of research tools. We have brought together speakers with a range of perspectives to discuss research, innovation, entrepreneurship, and bringing groundbreaking products to market.
- Where can we expect the major technological breakthroughs in life science over the next few years?
- What are the key success factors in commercializing products and scaling up companies?
- As a researcher, how do you know which discoveries are worth building a company around?
- What do investors look for in companies like these?
We will also take the opportunity to celebrate Atlas Antibodies’ 20th anniversary, and the company will host a networking reception after the discussion. Don’t miss this chance to learn from others’ experiences and connect with new and familiar faces.

- Mathias Uhlén, Professor of Microbiology, KTH Royal Institute of Technology

- Ingela Hofverberg, CEO, Atlas Antibodies
