/ About this event

Join BioPioneers and VCVillage for our first ever joint event during SF Tech Week!

BioPioneers and VC Village are bringing together founders, scientists, investors, and operators building at the intersection of AI, technology, and biology for an informal happy hour during SF Tech Week.

If you're building or investing in AI-bio, techbio, computational biology, drug discovery, synthetic biology, diagnostics, healthcare technology, or next-generation life sciences, come meet others pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in biology.

No panels. No pitches. Just good conversations, new connections, and a room full of people building what’s next.

This is an unsponsored event. Attendees will be responsible for their own food and drinks.
