B² x Bakar Labs Talent Mixer
The future of biotech is on Cal's campus.
Across UC Berkeley's academic labs, graduate programs, and Bakar Labs, there's a wealth of biotech innovators — but they often end up siloed within their own programs. This happy hour breaks the silo by bringing together biotech-curious PhD, MBA, and master's students to meet the startups building the next generation of biotech at Bakar Labs.
Last year, more than 110 students registered. Expect a lively evening of intimate conversations, new connections, and the people you'll want to know in Berkeley biotech.
IMPORTANT EVENT DETAILS

Attendee CVs will be shared with Bakar Labs companies ahead of the event, so you can arrive knowing who you want to meet.
For Students and Postdocs: We welcome all UC Berkeley graduate students, postdocs, and recent alumni exploring biotech careers, whether you're actively job searching or planning for the future.
