Founder Network
It's a new era for biotechnology innovation. The floodgates of opportunity are wide open. The types of ventures and the founders building them are changing at breakneck speed, but one thing doesn't change:
It takes a village.
​
Successful entrepreneurs surround themselves with like-minded peers who challenge them, push them and feed off of each other's successes.
​
With the right people around you, opportunities become boundless.
​
Meet like-minded peers, seasoned mentors, and potential investors, and access resources to help you get ahead. We're building Canada's premiere community for synthetic biology startup founders.

You Don't have to go it alone.
Building a startup doesn't have to be lonesome. Our Founder Network is a place for those brave biologists designing living solutions to the world's challenges.
​
Building something from the ground up is always hard, let alone a biology startup.
There's no instruction manual and no single right answer to your challenges.
​
Luckily, you don't have to go it alone. We're building a community of synthetic biology startup entrepreneurs, new & old. Surround yourself with peers and mentors to access a wealth of experience, knowledge, and connections.
