Talent Boardroom: Turning talent into a scalable performance asset
Join BioTalent for an exclusive roundtable discussion at our London headquarters, co-hosted with our partner Deel, the global people platform combining payroll, HR, performance and compliance in a single solution.
This intimate, invite-only session brings together founders, CEOs, COOs and functional leaders from SME and growth-stage life sciences companies to explore how Talent Science can unlock sustainable growth.
We'll examine why talent is often the hidden constraint holding back SMEs, share practical frameworks for making smarter hiring decisions and explore real-world case studies from companies that have navigated these challenges successfully.
Lunch will be provided, giving you the opportunity to continue the conversation with your peers in an informal setting.
The structure of the day is as follows:
PART ONE: Introduction, context and masterclass objectives
Welcome, tea, coffee and introductions across attendees
