Rotterdam Square recap: a week full of inspiring connections, fresh ideas, and growth!
From welcoming new international companies at the Rotterdam Partners Red Carpet Dinner to hosting our Life Sciences Café and concluding with our CEO Peer-to-Peer session in collaboration with Cardialysis, it has been a week that showcased the strength, diversity, and collaborative spirit of Rotterdam’s Life Sciences & Health community.
We started the week on Monday at the Rotterdam Partners Red Carpet Dinner at FENIX, welcoming new international companies to Rotterdam. It was good to see so many new companies establishing themselves in Rotterdam, especially the new players from the Life Sciences and Health sector, who have strengthened our innovative ecosystem.
On Tuesday, we hosted our own Life Sciences Café at BlueCity; Rotterdam’s circular economy hub that supports sustainable startups and innovative ventures. With presentations from Muziek als Medicijn and Sylencio, the event provided an excellent platform for networking and exchanging ideas on the future of health innovation.
Thursday marked our CEO Peer-to-Peer session in collaboration with Cardialysis, brilliantly hosted by Ernest Spitzer. This edition featured Kenneth Graham, Managing Director of Biosensors Europe SA, delivering an insightful keynote: “A Roadmap for Clinical Evidence: from First in Man to the Guidelines.” An inspiring presentation followed by lively discussions and valuable networking among peers. It was a truly engaging session!
It was a week that highlighted the strength and diversity of the Life Sciences & Health community in Rotterdam, showcasing the impact of collaboration and knowledge exchange across sectors!
