CHANDLER, Ariz.--()--The Arizona Bioindustry Association (AZBio) today announced the lineup for the fifth annual Arizona Bioscience Week including its schedule of daily online community educational programs, a 1-hour television special Celebrating Life & Science, and the White Hat Life Science Investor Conference. All events will take place between September 14, 2020 and September 19, 2020.

“Since its inception in 2016, Arizona Bioscience Week has provided the opportunity for Arizonans to connect, engage, and learn about the innovative work taking place in our state’s life science and healthcare community,” stated Joan Koerber-Walker, president & CEO of AZBio. “In 2020, due to COVID-19, it is not wise or responsible to bring together over a thousand people for in-person events but that does not mean that we can’t continue to come together.”

Innovation is a core component of Arizona’s bioscience industry which includes the state’s universities, research institutes, healthcare systems, hundreds of companies and over 300,000 people with a shared mission to make life better.

“Arizona is globally-recognized for our innovative bioscience and health care sector, which is among the fastest growing in the nation,” said Sandra Watson, President & CEO of the Arizona Commerce Authority. “The ACA is very proud to continue our partnership with AZBio to present Arizona Bioscience Week and celebrate the life-changing work being done in our state.”

Arizona Bioscience Week Activities will include:

  • Celebrating Life & Science, a 1-hour television special, will air at 7 PM on Wednesday, September 16, 2020 on CW61 with a simulcast on YouTube.com/AZBio1 and rebroadcast on ABC15 the evening of Friday, September 18th following Nightline.
  • The White Hat Life Science Investor Conference creates opportunities for investors to learn about opportunities available with life science companies from across the Rocky Mountain Southwest Region.
  • Online, age appropriate, educational sessions that teachers and parents can use to engage students in learning about health and science.
  • Online Educational Panels and Conferences for adults hosted by Arizona State University, the Critical Path Institute, Perkins Coie, the Flinn Foundation, The University of Arizona, AZBio, and others.
