Welcome to the 5th Annual Biomedical Forum. This year’s program will focus on the latest innovations in medical devices and biotechnology/ pharmaceutical industries, as well as business opportunities to thrive in the new economy amid global financial challenges. The mission of this forum is to provide an attractive platform for entrepreneurs, scientists, engineers, investors, executives, and policy makers to promote life sciences, biotechnology, pharmaceutical, medical device and alliances across the biomedical industry in Southern California and Asia. The annual biomedical forum is one of the flagship events organized by SABPA OC/LA, which consistently attracted more than 200 attendees. This year, we have brought to you pioneers and renowned innovators in the field, as well as exhilarating entrepreneurs that help accelerate the development of technology into clinical practices. Furthermore, we will introduce two Special Reports from China to join the discussion on reviving the economy from global operation perspective. I hope you will enjoy the program.
