Think Global Forum Announces Latest Life Sciences Event
The Think Global Forum for Life Sciences is set to return to San Diego after a successful launch in 2017.
MOUNTAIN VIEW, Calif., Sept. 7, 2018 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- The Think Global Forum for Life Sciences is set to return after a successful launch in 2017. The follow-up event will be taking place on September 12, 2018, at the Illumina Worldwide Headquarters in San Diego, CA.
San Diego is home to an impressive number of globally focused life sciences companies - Illumina, an industry leader in genomics, is a stellar example. This year, the second edition will gather life sciences, biotech and healthcare professionals alongside existing Forum Executives to discuss upcoming industry opportunities and challenges.
"Illumina is delighted to host the Think Global Forum this year. The Think Global Forum sponsored by Vistatec is a unique opportunity to assemble thought leaders in global Life Sciences to advance global initiatives," commented Kathleen Pierce, Illumina's Content Operations Director.
The event will see senior leaders from the sector coming together to discuss the changing face of the industry and the very latest topics that may impact its future, whether it is challenges ahead or upcoming global trends in the life science sector.
According to a 2018 Deloitte study, one of the main aspects of the fourth industrial revolution is the rise in global health care costs, soaring from seven trillion dollars in 2015 to 8.7 trillion dollars by 2020.
The industrialization of the sector also remains highly impactful, with AI, cognitive technologies, automation, and computing power rapidly expanding.
The Life Sciences Forum returning edition follows other successful events this year, including the Technology, Travel and Retail & eCommerce Think Global Forums.
"I am looking forward to participating in the Think Global Forum again this year. The inaugural event last year elicited some truly meaningful dialogue. There are not so many opportunities to participate in forums of this size that advance knowledge sharing and innovation in our industry. It's also an honor to be asked to be the keynote speaker at this year's event," commented Richard Korn, Senior Manager, Global Labeling at Edwards Life Sciences.
