Innovators&#8217; Dilemma again &#8211; Tesla took the market space that Toyota and Detroit manufacturers won&#8217;t be moved to jump into the area</p>
<p><strong>2nd Keynote: Sustaining Entrepreneurship in Biotech and Its Global Impact &#8211; John C. Martin, PhD, President and CEO, Gilead Sciences</strong><br />
- Biotech lies at the intersection of life sciences and technology: Health focused companies that capitalize on the increase in scientific understanding of biology and genetics<br />
HL: &#8220;Don&#8217;t be boring. Make Biotech as sexy as Tesla motors&#8221;<br />
Healthcare Challenges and Opportunities:<br />
- Globalization makes disease travel faster<br />
- IP in developing world to attract investors</p>
<p><strong>AIDS</strong> Developing World Challenges:<br />
- More than 30 million infected<br />
- 4.1 million new infections per year<br />
