Those attending the luncheon included executives from Fountainvest Partners, Franklin Templeton Sealand, Qiming VC, and SAIF Partners.
Cedrus’ Chief Technical Officer, Mr. Randy Hice said, “I am glad to be able to share the latest trends in immunology research and development with investors and companies, as well as providing some perspectives on how progressive scientific enterprises are utilizing the latest tools available to improve their data quality while achieving FDA compliance. The feedback from the event’s participants provided us with a better understanding of the active areas of interest from Chinese life sciences investors and companies, and that understanding will no doubt facilitate future cooperation regarding cross-border transactions and investment opportunities.”
