Navigating Early Hurdles Building in Life Science

​What happens when promising life science research moves beyond discovery and toward real patient impact?

​Join the Cambridge Female Founders Network and Conception X for an intimate breakfast and roundtable discussion as part of Cambridge Wide Open Week 2026, supported by Mission Street. This networking session brings together Cambridge founders and researchers who are actively translating life sciences research into real-world impact through venture building.

​We’ll discuss the real challenges of building at the earliest stage, from fundraising and customer traction to team building and more, with space to share experiences, ask questions and learn from peers facing similar hurdles.

​Designed to encourage meaningful conversation, the breakfast creates space for you to connect with peers across the Cambridge ecosystem and strengthen your network within the local life sciences community.

​Space is limited to ensure high-quality discussion and interaction.
