About the Event
We’re excited to welcome Dr. Michael Hayden for an open conversation on biotech innovation, from building successful companies and exits to tackling today’s biggest challenges and exploring Israel’s role in the global biotech scene.
From 2012 to 2017, Dr. Hayden served as President of Global R&D and Chief Scientific Officer at Teva, and currently serves as the CEO of Prilenia Therapeutics as well as a Killam Professor at the University of British Columbia. Over his career, he has co-founded five biotech companies: NeuroVir, Xenon, Aspreva, 89bio, and Prilenia, and serves on multiple boards of both public and private biotech companies.
