Partnering

FasterCures convened Partnering for Cures with the goal of bringing together major players in medical research to find workable strategies to cure diseases – faster. To accomplish this, the conference featured a proven business technique called partnering, widely used in the biopharmaceutical industry to facilitate collaborations that lead to new medical solutions.

Partnering allows you to make connections, share information and catalyze solutions. It is an efficient approach for meeting several potential collaborators in a single event, reducing the in-person due diligence cycle from potentially months to a matter of days. Partnering services were provided by EBD Group.

"When it comes to medical research, never has it been more important to think about the end game: getting therapies to people. To realize this, industry and medical research foundations must work together early in the research and development process, with philanthropy helping to pave the way."

- David Panzirer, Trustee, The Leona M. and Harry B. Helmsley Charitable Trust
