Sachs Associates would like to say that we have enjoyed hosting you in person and virtually and thank those who participated in our Sachs Autumn Life Sciences Week, which incorporated the 1st Annual European Healthcare Impact Summit (#Sachs_EHIS) and the 26th Annual Biotech in Europe Forum (#Sachs_BEF). A special thank you goes to the excellent lineup of sponsors, chairs, panellists, exhibitors, and presenters who made such a broad and interesting programme possible and to those who participated in person and during the virtual week.

The Life Sciences Week has proven to be successful in supporting our community with 621 delegates from 27 countries and nearly 2500 in-person & online meetings completed.

Publicly available recordings of the sessions and presentations that took place during the event will be added once the event portal closes (after the 6th of November) on the SachsTV YouTube channel.

We are looking forward to welcoming you again at our future events!
