5th Annual Business of Personalized Medicine Summit

In the 15 years since the Human Genome Project was completed, the genomic revolution has spurred immeasurable excitement and support surrounding the promise of personalized medicine, setting high expectations for a new era of health care and rapidly transforming the field into a multi-billion dollar industry. While realizing that promise has been neither quick nor easy, recent scientific and technological progress points to a possible tipping point for mainstream clinical adoption as well as tremendous commercial potential for innovators, entrepreneurs, and investors.

For a deep-dive into this potential and how to capitalize on it, join Foley, the Personalized Medicine Coalition, and key industry stakeholders on December 6 in South San Francisco for the annual Business of Personalized Medicine Summit. Now in its fifth year, this unique one-day thought leadership forum explores sustainable business model solutions for entities that are already engaged in the personalized medicine marketplace as well as those seeking to enter the competitive space.

Through a series of thought-provoking discussions, the program will examine the latest financial, regulatory, policy, R&D, and technology-related complexities, trends, and opportunities impacting the business of personalized medicine, and introduce strategies for successfully navigating this challenging and ever-evolving market.
