The $250,000 seed investment in LIMBER Prosthetics and Orthotics Inc. – a San Diego medical device startup spun out of UC San Diego by two former students – represents a strategic expansion of UC San Diego’s robust innovation ecosystem. It is the first time a campus in the University of California system has ever invested directly in one of its own spinoffs.
Japan External Trade Organization (JETRO), in partnership with UC San Diego’s Institute for the Global Entrepreneur (IGE), will host a JAPAN Innovation Luncheon on June 4th, the second day of BIO2024.
This event gathers professionals from the biotech and life sciences industry and startups from Japan and the U.S. It features presentations, informational booths, and networking opportunities to promote, build, and strengthen a collaborative ecosystem between Japan and the U.S.
