Meet with Johnson & Johnson Innovation

At a unique in-person event on July 2, 2024 in Maastricht, the Netherlands, our team will present Johnson & Johnson Innovation's external collaboration model, which provides tailored support ranging from business incubation and co-creation to customized R&D collaborations, equity investments and access to world-class expertise.

As part of the program, we will address the path of partnering and collaboration for early-stage innovators. Groundbreaking science, adequate funding, IP protection and a great team are all key ingredients when starting a healthcare company. However, partnering with a large company can also be critical to successfully bringing your innovation to patients. Such a collaboration can give you access to expertise, resources and networks that are otherwise difficult to access. In this session, our team will share insights on how they evaluate opportunities and discuss how you might enter the conversation.

The event is organized by Johnson & Johnson Innovation in partnership with Brightlands Maastricht. We look forward to meeting innovative emerging companies and start-ups, as well as researchers, academics and organizations based in the broader Meuse-Rhine Euregio and active in the pharmaceutical and medtech sectors.
