Join our WA Spotlight on Global Biopharma: Innovation, Competition and Geopolitics

August’s WA Sector Spotlight event, hosted by the WA Life Sciences Innovation Hub and delivered in collaboration with the U.S. Consulate Perth, will feature global policy and innovation expert Stephen Ezell, Vice President for Global Innovation Policy at the Information Technology and Innovation Foundation (ITIF) and Director of ITIF’s Center for Life Sciences Innovation in Washington.

Stephen will explore what drives the world’s leading life sciences innovation ecosystems and what WA can learn from global leaders in research translation, commercialisation, investment attraction and industry.

The presentation will be followed by a fireside chat with Dr Tracey Wilkinson, Director Stakeholder Engagement at the WA Life Sciences Innovation Hub. Together, they will discuss what these global trends mean for Australia and Western Australia, the opportunities and challenges facing local innovators, and how the WA sector can position itself in an increasingly competitive international environment.
