BioTech Fermenter - Chicago's Biotechnology Meetup

Share this event

Network over a drink with Chicago's biotechnology professionals and build a community of biotechnologists, entrepreneurs, investors, and enthusiasts. We're continuing our series of networking opportunities to discuss challenges, opportunities, and frustrations while enjoying an evening with your professional peers from around Chicagoland.

We are so excited to be returning to mHUB. mHUB is where people come to build the physical technologies that will change the physical world. Through prototyping labs, industry partnerships, and a commitment to U.S. manufacturing, the mHUB ecosystem is changing the landscape of HardTech development. The event will be a BYOB event; if you plan on drinking, feel free to bring some wine or beer (No hard alcohol will be permitted; please drink responsible and remember it is illegal to share alcohol with anyone under the age of 21). You do not have to bring anything to drink and the event is open to all, but we understand that it sometimes helps with networking.
We'll have a chance for some quick insights from the mHUB community explaining some fun aspects of the facility, resources, and space.
The Biotech Fermenter is an event that is open to everyone, and the organizers strongly believe that working in a biotechnology future should be accessible to all Chicagoans, regardless of race, gender expression, sexual identity, national origin, or any other protected class. The Biotech Fermenter is a space for open and friendly sharing of ideas, and we are all responsible for ensuring everyone feels safe and respected. We are committed to hosting inclusive events, and will not tolerate any actions or attitudes contrary to our deeply held beliefs in inclusivity. By attending this event, you are agreeing to uphold this standard and acknowledge that the organizers reserve the right to restrict attendance.

If you have any concerns about another person's behavior, you may file a report via email with the organizers Andy Scarpelli (andy@chitownbio.org ) and Ryan Brown ([ryanbrown2234@gmail.com](mailto:ryanbrown2234@gmail.com)). We are committed to ensuring that the Biotech Fermenter is a safe space for all, and will take precautionary measures or responsive actions to uphold these ideals.
