We are pleased to present the first life science event organized together by the Swedish American Chamber of Commerce in San Diego, San Francisco/Silicon Valley and New England - the top three life science clusters in the U.S. Since Life Science Bridge's mission is to promote trade between our clusters and Sweden, we can now proudly announce our first event together Bridging the Gap - with the purpose to inspire, educate and connect people in the life science scene. There is also an appurtenant pre-event with GoToMarketUSA on March 11, which you can find here. 

With Sweden and the U.S. being at the top of the life science industry, we aim to build bridges between these nations to promote a healthy and innovative world.
