Can biopharma win the AI talent war?
JANUARY 12 - 13, 2026 | 7:00 AM - 5:00 PM PT
VIRTUAL + SAN FRANCISCO
Biopharma has an AI problem, and it's not about the technology.
The industry has embraced AI as critical to its future, but big tech is winning the war for the people who actually know how to build it. Join our session as VZVC's Vijay Pande and Bausch + Lomb's Brent Saunders sit down with Drew Armstrong to address what no one wants to admit: biopharma is losing the talent war. Can the biopharma really compete — or is it about to get left behind?

Charting biotech's course for 2026
Catalent CEO Alessandro Maselli and John Carroll return for their annual predictions session, charting what's ahead for biotech in 2026. Last year, Carroll took heat for his bullish M&A forecast — until the second half proved him right with a string of blockbuster deals. This year, they're tackling everything from manufacturing pressures to funding dynamics and what the dealmaking momentum really means for the months ahead.
NEW: In-person passes include access to our invite-only networking reception, featuring a live taping of Post-Hoc Live and special guest Noubar Afeyan, Founder and CEO of Flagship Pioneering.
