About the network
Our meetings are open to anyone interested in biotech and life sciences innovation in and around Vienna.
An informal evening of drinks and conversations, built around Vienna’s startup and innovation scene. Most of the evening is unstructured, with a short news update and a few one-minute shoutouts: no slides, no sales pitches, just conversation starters.
Want to give a shoutout? Add it when you register, or write to us at vbn.events@proton.me
