A purpose beyond profit
The event is
free for 90% of attendees.
You might be asking, ‘what’s the catch?’
There is no catch. The Festival is
breaking the myth that the best life sciences events are also the most expensive to attend
. And we have good reasons for doing this.
The Festival was set up after the death of the CEO’s father to cancer, and with a mission to
deliver the benefits of genomics to patients faster
. It was set up to
prioritize social impact, not profit

Make no mistake.
This may be a Festival packed with fun things to do and discover. But our priority is for all attendees to leave with new workable solutions, connections, ideas, advice, insights and intelligence that will make a tangible impact to your work – more than any other life science event you’ve ever attended.
