Global Entrepreneur Programme (GEP) Masterclass: Life Sciences

Hosted by Global Entrepreneur Programme and Addleshaw Goddard

A morning masterclass from the UK government's Global Entrepreneur Programme and the law firm Addleshaw Goddard, aimed at international life sciences companies expanding into the UK. After a networking breakfast, short sessions cover getting clinical trials authorised, working with and selling to the NHS, what UK investors look for, and founder and talent visa routes. It is invitation only: you register interest and the organisers confirm places. The official calendar gives the venue as 41 Lothbury, near Bank; the organiser shares the address on confirmation.
