Tuesday, September 25: LifeSciences BC 07/08 Membership RenewalsLifeSciences BC would like to thank our members for renewing their 2007/08 membership. Without the support of our members, we could not have undertaken our numerous successful policy and advocacy initiatives this past year, alongside our ongoing LifeSciences British Columbia events and programs such as our Breakfast Speaking Series, Industry Roundtables, sanofi-aventis biotech challenge and the BC Biotechnology Awards.In February of this year, BC Biotech also announced a name change to LifeSciences British Columbia. The change in name is reflective of an even broader member association and an expanded Life Sciences Industry view beyond biopharmaceuticals. The organization will not begin to extend its advocacy, public policy development and awareness-building activities to ensure all aspects of the bio-economy continues to grow in British Columbia and Canada.
