Angels in MedCity - Cambridge Awareness 4th October 2018, Oct 2018, 16:30 - 21:00
MedCity in conjunction with Cambridge Wireless would like to invite you to an information evening/ investor workshop about the Angels in MedCity initiative. This event will serve to introduce the only Healthcare and Life Sciences dedicated angel investment programme in the UK to the Life Sciences and investment community in Cambridge. There will be also the opportunity to discuss trends in convergence technologies including inputs from one of our sponsors, leading intellectual property firm, Gill Jennings & Every nad from our alumni Eagle Genomics.
The aim is to provide an overview of the sector for investors in other areas, and an introduction to angel investing for life sciences / tech professionals who are interested in getting involved. So far, our events have been mostly held in London, but we want to ensure it is an inclusive programme for investors and entrepreneurs across the Greater South East of England, complementing the opportunities already available.
