 Wednesday 23rd September 2009

UMIC are celebrating  ten years of successful biotechnology incubation and growth with a
major event involving industry, government and investor delegates. Speakers include Sir William Castell, Chairman of the Wellcome Trust and ex-CEO of Amersham plc.

The event will also celebrate the 5th anniversary of UMIP, the University's IP commercialisation company, looking back on its significant achievements and a view of the future (www.umip.com).

Roundtable discussions on financing & investment, drug development, and national policymaking will be led by experienced local professionals who have ‘been there, done that’.

Finally a showcase exhibition throughout the event will highlight Northwest biotech, UMIC partners, collaborators, and research projects within The University of Manchester.

We anticipate strong delegate representation from government, research councils, industry and academia.
