GLSA | FOCM Networking Event Recap

August 18, 2021

The Global Life Sciences Alliance (GLSA), in partnership with FOCM Networking, hosted its fourth monthly online clinical research networking event on August 18, 2021. The event brought together professionals from across the life sciences industry for an engaging evening of connection and collaboration.

To open the session, a personal milestone was shared, setting a warm and welcoming tone for the evening.

Below is the picture I shared of me walking my daughter Amy down the aisle to get married to Jamison.  

This event marked our largest turnout to date, allowing us to host four separate breakout networking sessions so attendees could meet more people in meaningful, small-group conversations

As with all GLSA networking events, the format mirrored a conference reception. Attendees were encouraged to drop in when convenient and leave as needed. The agenda included group discussions, industry updates, informal introductions, and randomly assigned breakout rooms of three to four participants for focused networking and idea sharing.

The strong participation and lively discussions highlighted the value of these informal yet purposeful gatherings. Our next event was announced for Wednesday, September 15, at 7:00 PM EST, and we look forward to continuing the momentum.
