About This Event
Whether you're building something, investing in what's next, or simply curious about where Bio and HealthTech is heading — this is the room to be in.
Join Aurrin Ventures’ Create & Connect: Bio and HealthTech Industry Night , where five founders pitch their ventures live in front of a panel of experienced judges and a live audience. One team walks away with a $500 microgrant. Everyone walks away with new connections.
This isn't a conference. There are no slide decks to sit through and no panels that run long. Just founders with bold ideas, judges who've built real companies, and a community of Calgary's most curious and ambitious professionals in one room.
Whether you're launching a venture, looking to grow your business, exploring new opportunities, or hoping to meet early stage founders, this event is designed to create meaningful connections while showcasing new ideas in the industry.
