Bio2Device Group, Tuesday Morning, May 24, 2016
Topic: “Green Chemistry Global Adoption: Its challenges, advances and opportunities”
Speakers: Neelam Vaidya and Jose Castanon , CEO and Marketing Executive, ViridisChem Inc.
Date and Time: Tuesday, May 24, 2016, 8:30 am
Location: Sunnyvale City Council Chambers, 456 West Olive Avenue, Sunnyvale
There is no registration or fee required for morning meetings.
Topic Description
In 2014, Neelam and Rahul Vaidya cofounded ViridisChem Inc. with the mission to develop a
portfolio of software solutions that will provide all the information and analysis capabilities
scientists would need to practice “green chemistry” within their everyday research, that will
result in environmentally friendly product development processes that are greener, safer, and
economical. To enable this goal, the company has built in-house and proprietary
- chemical database with over 60 million chemicals,
- citation database with over 20 million citations and patents,
- reaction database with over 10 million reference reactions
It recently launched its first product Green Pocketbook that is being used both as an educational
tool and as a reference guide by universities and industry scientists for their day-to-day research
needs. It provides full chemical and toxicological profiles of chemicals, and offers “green
scores” based on these properties through easy to understand visual charts. With inclusion of
chemicals relevant to most industries, and by providing the most comprehensive information
about chemicals in a very easy to use and understand manner, Green Pocketbook is proving to be
a “must have” software solution for scientists from most industries for their day-to-day work.
During this 1-hour interactive session, the presenters will discuss:
- Green Chemistry Global Revolution: What is it, when did it start? Why is there a global and
mandatory adoption enforced by the governments?
- Current status and advances by different industries
- Roadblocks that are stopping companies from adopting green-aware research
- Challenges and Opportunities and solutions available today
- Specific needs of different industries and how are we addressing them?
- ViridisChem Solutions
- Issues surrounding “green data” and “green scores” and relationship between toxicological data
and green scores
- Green Pocketbook Product Demo

Topic Description
Three years of strong financial performance in healthcare have generated over $50 billion in
potential value back to investors. Last year saw the most capital invested in healthcare
companies compared to any other year. The key driver in this performance, record
investment in biopharma, saw the largest share of crossover investment by non-traditional
biotech investors participating in large mezzanine rounds. The past three years have also
seen the largest sustained and most prosperous IPO bull market in healthcare, but the IPO
markets have dipped in the beginning of the new year.
When public markets taper off, we start to see spikes elsewhere, such as in partnering
activities. Total M&A deal values have reached a decade-high, and partnering deals spiked
3
both in number and value toward the end of 2015 into 2016. Licensing deals have also seen
an upward trend in value, with up-front payouts increasing for large and small deals alike.
The overall outlook for biopharma is positive, as these exits and successes have led to
higher returns and greater investor confidence. Timely and successful fundraising cycles
mean venture healthcare has enough capital to support existing investments and new
financings, which will reinforce biotech companies as the IPO market declines and non-
traditional crossover investors pull away.
Chris Ehrlich will analyze these and other key trends and data from 2015 in the financing
and licensing markets of biopharma, and provide his outlook on the opportunities and
challenges the biotechnology industry is facing in 2016.

Event Description
May 8 - 14 is National Women's Health Week. As the department of health and human
services and organizations rally to help US women understand the steps they can take to
improve their health, it's hard to not think about the majority of women internationally who
lack access to the basic health services we take for granted in our own county.
Did you know?:
• The number of women worldwide who had an unmet need for modern contraception
in 2012 was 222 million
• In Africa, only 29 percent of women of reproductive age use modern contraception
and the average number of children per woman is 4.7
• 40 percent of girls in sub-Saharan Africa are married before the age of 18
• There are 1.8 billion young people in the world right now (ages 10-24)... 600 million
are adolescent girls. Never before has there been so many young people.
Join us for an engaging dinner discussion with Sally Stephens, senior vice president,
corporate development at Medicines360, as we take a look at the state of women's health
globally. For organizations like Medicines360, whose mission is to expand access to
medicines for women regardless of their socioeconomic status, insurance coverage or
geographic location, the key is to innovate on many different levels in order to meet the still
unmet need in global women's health today.

Topic Description Without it your startup will not float. There are many sources of funding including Angels, VC's, governments, incubators, Pharma, friends and family, etc... but how do you get it? What source(s) are best for your company?
Topics covered:
Johnson & Johnson Innovation, JLABS is fortunate to have a breath of startups with a wide
range of funding experience, so we asked them to share their inner funding thoughts and
secrets. Joins us for a deep dive to look how current startups are succeeding at the funding
game and how they plan to continue to keep their head above water.
• Where did you start?
• How does one offer effect interest form others?
• Angel vs. Friend/family vs. VC's vs. incubators
• Seed- series A, B, and beyond when is it best to have one investor lead the round?
• Do funding methods differ depending on the product: med
device/instrument,bioinformatics software, biologic drug or therapeutic.
• The process - how many times did you get up to the plate before you got on base?
How about non-accredited investors/crowd sourcing?

Topic Description
Since the inception of the 401(k) in 1980, the responsibility of saving for retirement has
slowly shifted from employers to the employee. Coinciding with that shift has alsbeen a
change in the workforce from baby boomers to increasing numbers of millennials. This has
led to a retirement readiness crisis that affects all employees - from those employees about
to retire all the way to those starting their first jobs out of college.
Join UBS’s 401(k) advisors for lunch to gain insight on how to help you meet this retirement
challenge head on. Their knowledgeable team will cover important aspects of social security
to help soon-to-be retirees understand how to maximize monthly benefits in addition to
strategies and tactics to help put millennials on the path to retirement success.
