Third Health + Wellness Investor Roundtable
(Formerly Food, Nutrition & Wellness Venture Capital Roundtable)
It's common knowledge that our healthcare marketplace is undergoing a fundamental, disruptive shift, and consumers are increasingly becoming empowered to make more educated and value-driven choices about healthy lifestyles and the prevention and treatment of disease. However, traditional venture capital investment sectors are still defined in terms of Biotech, IT, Healthcare and Consumer practices. We see a converging landscape of new businesses and new business models which will require cross-sector management and investment expertise.
This day-long event brings together leaders from these disparate sectors to learn from one another and develop shared perspectives on the advancement of early-stage companies and the investment marketplace.The program will include key leaders, investors, and entrepreneurs discussing consumer trends relative to the adoption of healthier lifestyles and preventive behaviors, new developments in life sciences that reach the consumer, perspectives on financing, and entrepreneurial strategies and practices.
The Health + Wellness Investor Roundtable is co-organized by Physic Ventures and Nestlé with generous support from Canaccord Adams, Feinstein Kean Healthcare, Russell Reynolds Associates, and Sonnenschein Nath & Rosenthal LLP. This event is by invitation only. If you or another colleague would like to be invited, please email info@hwroundtable.com.
A companion event to the HWIR, the Nutrition Capital Network, will be held the next day, October 17th, at Campton Place Hotel. The NCN meeting will present a selection of screened companies at various stages of raising capital. More information may be obtained at www.nutritioncapital.com
