Emergence director, Martin Yuill: “Emergence supports the formation and growth of innovative startups and growth stage companies…”
Emergence director, Martin Yuill, says that Emergence is partnering with BioNB to support the Atlantic BIOCON Conference because of the importance of expanding the early-stage and startup bioscience ecosystem across Atlantic Canada.
“The Emergence virtual business incubator supports the formation and growth of innovative startups and growth stage companies wherever they are located,” says Yuill.
“Our multi-year incubation model provides ventures with the guidance, professional services, mentorship, and access to capital they need to globally commercialize their products and services.”
