Propels: How to Launch a Biomed Startup

March 10, 2026 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm PDT

This session pulls back the curtain on what it really takes to launch a biomedical startup. A curated panel of founders and early-stage leaders will share how they moved from idea to incorporation — navigating team formation, product-market fit, regulatory planning, IP decisions, funding rounds, and the emotional rollercoaster of startup life.

Panelists will reflect on key inflection points and missteps, offering actionable insights for students who may want to translate their research into a commercial venture in the future. A great session for those who are “startup-curious” but unsure where to begin.
