FRAXA Biotech Games™ raise money for research while giving members of the Boston biotech community the opportunity to meet each other and network in a friendly setting to share camaraderie, experiences and expertise which then strengthens the Boston scientific ecosystem.

Proceeds of the event support FRAXA Research Foundation, which funds Fragile X research in Boston area labs, including the Mark Bear Lab at MIT’s Picower Institute and the Jeannie Lee Lab at Harvard/Mass General. FRAXA’s mission is to find effective treatments and ultimately a cure for Fragile X, the most common inherited cause of autism and learning disabilities worldwide.

Registration begins at 2:30 pm. The Games start at 3:30 pm and will conclude at 5:30 pm, immediately followed by a networking reception BBQ with food and Cash bar on The Common  from 5:30 -7:30 pm. Awards will be presented, including awarding the Cup to the top company, whose team achieves the highest overall score in the competition. There will be several consolation prizes as well.
