QED@QB3 Seminars

The QB3 Entrepreneurs’ Discussion (QED@QB3) series seeks to inspire, connect, and educate entrepreneurs. The backbone of the program consists of luncheon seminars by leading entrepreneurs, venture capitalists, and industry experts on technical matters necessary to launch a successful bioscience startup. These seminars also provide a great venue for members of the QB3 Garage Network and wider biotech community to meet with entrepreneurial students, staff, and faculty. We also hold special seminars at other times. To keep posted on these events please sign up for our mailing list. Interested in speaking? Email Douglas Crawford.
