Event Details

Oregon Life Sciences will host an in-person reception in Salem bringing together invited leaders from Oregon’s life sciences community and members of the Oregon Biotech Caucus for an evening of connection and conversation.

The Oregon Biotech Caucus is chaired by Representative Hai Pham and includes state legislators from both chambers and other elected officials, representing districts across the Portland metro region, the Willamette Valley, and other parts of the state where life sciences research, manufacturing, and workforce activity are concentrated. Caucus members span key policy areas, including economic development, workforce and education, healthcare, and research and innovation, and participate to better understand the needs and opportunities of Oregon’s bioscience sector. 

This convening offers sponsors a unique opportunity to:

  • Direct visibility with engaged legislators participating in the Biotech Caucus, including its chair
  • Access to senior life sciences manufacturing and operations leaders from across Oregon
  • Alignment with a coordinated, nonpartisan effort to strengthen understanding of Oregon’s life sciences and biomanufacturing landscape
  • An opportunity to support meaningful, solution-oriented engagement between industry and policymakers
