To coincide with our presence at the 2016 BIO International Convention (BIO) from June 6-9, 2016, MaRS Innovation launched a video explaining our role in Canada’s innovation ecosystem: backing big thinkers with bold ideas and working with them to take those breakthroughs to market.

This year, BIO takes place in San Francisco, California, the birthplace of biotech. MaRS Innovation will be present in the Ontario Pavilion (Booth #5944) in partnership with the Ontario Government and Life Sciences Ontario.

Both the Honourable Navdeep Bains, Canada’s Minister of Innovation, Science and Economic Development, and the Honourable Reza Moridi, Ontario’s Minister of Research & Innovation, are attending the convention this year and will meet with MaRS Innovation’s life sciences team.
