Southeast BIO (SEBIO) presents the annual BIO/Plan Competition. This year-long program has been designed and developed to help foster the creation of new, venture-attractive life science companies based in the Southeast. Working closely with tech transfer offices and entrepreneurs throughout the region, the competition seeks out and pulls forward opportunities from our region's research universities, research centers and existing entrepreneurs.
Both the 2007 winner, Triptcor Pharmaceuticals from Emory University, and the 2008 winner Cerene Biomedics (Raleigh, NC), have received unprecedented levels of interest from the venture community following their selection and are now well positioned to launch the enterprise with significant backing. Other participants in the program report similar interest from the investment community and express confidence going forward as they now possess a fully-vetted, professionally-developed business strategy and accompanying written plan. Future participants can expect even greater interest in their opportunity as the BIO/Plan Competition is now recognized as one of the premier venture development programs in the Southeast.
