Summary

Bisnow is thrilled to announce our Boston Life Sciences Summit! Join us as we examine what most consider to be America's hotbed for the Life Sciences Industry. Robert Coughlin and Susan Windham-Bannister will kick the show off with a co-keynote interview regarding how to maintain the growth that Boston has realized. They will dive into initiatives such as Impact 2020, and tackle potential challenges, while also examining areas for potential growth. Our All Star Panel will follow by answering burning questions regarding the Life Sciences Real Estate market. Which submarket is primed for a boom? What design trends and innovations are we seeing? What can we expect in the way of future development?

As always, come early and stay late for second to none networking opportunities -- we'll see you there!
