Núria Romero, Lidia Cánovas, Oriol Penon, Marta Rayo Lunar and Álvaro Villarino from Asphalion attended the CataloniaBio & HealthTech 2023 gala dinner last night, a yearly networking event that brings together entrepreneurs, executives and professionals from benchmark institutions in the biomedicine and healthcare arena in Catalonia, and helps fostering relationships and cooperation between business and science.
At the event, Cosimo Chiesa, President of Barna Consulting Group presented his new book, written in collaboration with Rafael Salazar: “La venta híbrida: venta consultiva en un mundo presencial y virtual”. The book talks about the new great challenge that comercial teams face in order to survive and succeed in the current environment: acquiring new skills in an omnichannel market.
Interesting remarks were made during the evening. Ramon Maspons Bosch, Chief Health Innovation Strategist , Catalan Ministry of Health, said that “We’ve never been this fast and we’ll never go so slow again”, and Joan Puig de Dou, President from CataloniaBio & HealthTech, gave an overview about the figures of the sector and highlighted that funding from NextGenerationEU is really scarce.
From Asphalion, we would also like to congratulate AVINENT and SpliceBio, who were awarded the Bioèxit prize 2023.
