Hello anandvc-ga,
There is a wide selection of meetings, conferences, seminars and other
business get-togethers available to you in the San Francisco Bay Area
during the week of your visit. I?ve collected some that might be of
interest to you and organized them by the days of the week. In
addition, I?ve also included a selection of event calendars for you to
explore on your own. I think you could have a very busy week.
All the best.

Stem cell research holds the promise of breakthroughs in the treatment
of diabetes and Parkinson's disease, among other ailments. It is the
new frontier of medicine. But what will it mean to Silicon Valley? It
could be months or more before the California Institute for
Regenerative Medicine issues the first of $3 billion in grants for
stem-cell research, but already there are signs of a coming
"California stem cell gold rush".
The impact on the local economy will prove measurable. New exploration
means new joint ventures and start-ups, all of which need employees,
space, equipment and business services. And that new spending can
further fuel a recovering economy.
The Business Journal will lead a discussion of industry leaders and
business leaders as we examine the impact of the new frontier of
medicine on business and our economy in Silicon Valley.
Keynote Speaker & Panelist: J. William Langston MD Founder, CEO &
Chief Scientific Officer, The Parkinson's Institute
Panelist: Matthew M. Gardner President, BayBio
Panelist: Michael Goldberg General Partner, Mohr, Davidow Ventures and
Board member at California Institute for Regenerative Medicine
