Boehringer Ingelheim Academy
Our Grass Roots activities are centered around developing a personal relationship with the companies we work with. And our Academy sessions provide an informal opportunity for early-stage life-science companies to network with other bio-entrepreneurs as well as hear from Boehringer Ingelheim business development, scientific and commercial leaders and some of our partners and key opinion leaders.
This unique program was developed as an outreach initiative to the entrepreneurial and scientific community in life-science hotspots around the world to facilitate conversations both with Boehringer Ingelheim and across the innovation community.
Now available in a fully digital online format, more than 1,000 delegates have participated since the program started in 2016.
