Molecular Maverick Pitch Event
Join us for the second annual Molecular Maverick Prize Event, where we explore that special blend of scientific expertise, entrepreneurial spirit, charisma and nerve that shape innovation.
This year, we open with a panel of industry experts, moderated by Professor Trent Munro, on the dos and don’ts, ups and downs of the translation and commercialisation journey. What do researchers need to know to navigate it? What does industry look for in a research investment? What is the ‘valley of death’? And most important on this special evening, what makes a great pitch?
The panel is followed by pitches from three shortlisted PhD candidates, five minutes each. Announcement of the Molecular Maverick Prize recipient will wind up the formal program, followed by a reception to build and strengthen pivotal networks and connections.
