Bio, Business and Good Beans Program Committee

Oregon Bio has launched a new forum for rapid information distribution in a short coffee talk format titled Bio, Business and Good Beans. These sessions take place at 9:15 in the morning and have experts speaking on the topics of the moment such as PPP payback, UbiVac’s immunotherapy turned COVID-19 response, and data security risks/mitigation for remote workers. Click here to see video examples. These efforts have been well received, and we are looking for advocates to develop and secure content going forward.


The “Ask”
As part of the Bio, Business and Good Beans content committee, you would meet every other week for the first two months and then monthly thereafter to:

  • Establish a list of topics
