New Venue Spotlight:
McMaster Innovation Park (MIP)
|
We are excited to introduce a new Biotech Connect event at McMaster Innovation Park (MIP) — one of Canada’s leading research and innovation hubs.
Date: November 17, 2026
Time: 1:30 PM - 3:30 PM
Located just 7 km from McMaster University, MIP extends the university’s powerful research ecosystem into a commercialization-driven environment where startups, scale-ups, industry partners, and researchers collaborate to transform discoveries into real-world solutions.
Aligned with McMaster University’s research priorities, MIP is deeply engaged in Life Sciences, Advanced Materials & Manufacturing, and Information Communication Technology — making it a natural expansion of the audience you already connect with at our McMaster University shows.
