PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 8 /PRNewswire/ -- RRY Publications today reported that the 2nd Annual Stem Cell Summit will convene Monday in San Diego with close to 300 participants.
The attendance figures will make the conference the largest gathering of stem company executives, scientists, investors and physicians worldwide that is focused on the commercialization of stem-cell-based products.
“This is the only stem cell conference where the presentations and discussion are focused on products, not just the science,” said Robin Young, president of Philadelphia-based RRY Publications, producer of the Stem Cell Summit and publisher of Stem Cell Market Forecast and Analysis 2005-2015. “With the business, investment and medical communities’ appetite for market data, we intend to build on the success of our San Diego conference with the introduction of the first Stem Cell Summit -- Europe in the fall and four conferences worldwide next year.”
When the summit opens Monday, participants will hear Young’s presentation of the latest stem cell market forecast followed by business and product overviews from more than 25 companies that are transforming adult and human embryonic stem cells into therapeutics. In addition, participants will attend a panel discussion that addresses current concepts in stem cell company management.
Tuesday, the second day of the summit, participants will enjoy presentations of the latest research from top physicians from around the world along with the demonstration of the first-ever live stem cell surgery.
