🔬 The Future of Biotech is Female… and It’s Global.
We just wrapped a strategic advisory with international female founders in life sciences; winners of the @dwih_sf sponsored 8-week entrepreneurship program hosted by The GUILD.
They’re innovating across cancer, clinical trials, and sustainability, and they came to the Bay Area ready to scale 🌉
