Beacon Colab | Spring Life Sciences Networking Event
School of Medicine Main Calendar
Join Beacon CoLab (formerly Portal Innovations) for an early-evening networking event as Atlanta heads into spring. With warmer weather on the horizon, it’s the perfect time to step out of the office and connect with colleagues across the city’s growing life sciences community.
We’ll have light bites and plenty of time to mix and mingle with Atlanta’s biotech founders, operators, investors, and ecosystem partners. Whether you're looking to meet new collaborators, reconnect with familiar faces, or simply enjoy a relaxed evening with others building in the innovation ecosystem, this is a great chance to expand your network. Think springtime energy—good conversations, great company, and an easygoing atmosphere to kick off the season.
Bring a colleague, make a few new introductions, and join us for a fun evening at Beacon CoLabs. A special thank you to our sponsors, Rook Quality Systems and Arnall Golden Gregory LLP, for their support in making this evening possible.
