The Diversity & Inclusion Forum: Perspectives & Possibilities for the Life Science Industry

December 10, 2019 - 8:30 am - 1:00 pm

Overview

MassBio, in partnership with SVB Leerink, WEST and  Silicon Valley Bank is hosting an invite-only event to bring together the best and brightest minds in the life sciences and healthcare industry for a thoughtful discussion on how we can make our workforce, workplace, and marketplace more inclusive. You will hear from thought-provoking industry leaders, enjoy interactive sessions with actionable insights to positively impact our community, and benefit from meaningful networking opportunities to encourage good diversity of thought.

Please email Edie Stringfellow if you are interested in attending.

  • Our Workforce – Who we hire and how we hire matters. How do we build I&D into our workforce by focusing on our hiring practices and hiring decisions, the processes we undertake to evaluate potential employees and where we go to recruit them etc.?
  • Our Workplace – Once we’ve hired great people, how do we keep and develop them?
  • Our Marketplace – How do we become more deliberate to ensure the diverse perspectives and needs of our customers and communities are taken into consideration?

We hope to help change views from having D&I being seen as a challenge, to being embraced as an invaluable opportunity to make our employees, our business, and our industry stronger. Click here for more details, full agenda and speaker information.
