Portal Innovations fuels life science breakthroughs with human, financial and physical capital
The UChicago Science Incubator is officially up and running, and we’re excited to have members move into the space. @portalinno the Polsky Center, and @uchicago have all played a critical role in helping launch the space in Hyde Park. linkedin.com/company/uchica…
Thanks to @mHUBChicago for their hospitality at their annual BBQ celebration! Portal employees from Chicago, Houston, and Atlanta showed up for food, drinks, and music - this is a great annual event, and we're lucky to have partners like mHUB nearby!
Boston biotech always shows up! Thank you to everyone who attended our Portal Pours networking event last night at Southline - it was a great turnout, and we love giving life sciences innovators the opportunity to connect. #biotech #bostonbiotech
We're looking for our first Rhode Island hire at the Ocean State Labs incubator space in Providence! If you or anyone you know might be a fit for our Executive Director position, we encourage you to apply. Learn more: linkedin.com/jobs/view/4263…
🚨 Syntis Bio raises $33M oversubscribed Series A round 🚨 This marks a crucial moment for our Boston portfolio company as this round will help accelerate oral therapies for their obesity and rare disease drugs. Take a look at their feature in @endpts: endpoints.news/exclusive-bob-…
It was great hosting the New Brunswick Development Corporation (@NBDEVCO) team at Portal Southline during BIO! DEVCO has been a fantastic team to work with, and we're excited to help catalyze innovation in New Jersey when the incubator space at @helixnj opens.
BIG news for Portal Boston at Southline - our partners at @misprobiotech announced the launch of a new vivarium at Southline! This expansion is critical for biotech startups working out of Portal and the broader Southline ecosystem. Read the release here: finance.yahoo.com/news/mispro-ex…
Our Portal Chicago members are insanely talented - not only do they run groundbreaking research, but it seems like a few of them could be Banksy. Take a look at the artwork they’ve put up on our temporary walls around our staircase connecting floors 9 and 10. Great work!
Our friends over at @mhub are hosting this year's annual BBQ on July 17th! If you're an innovator in the tech space, then this event should be at the top of your list. Come listen to live music, eat fantastic BBQ, and play outdoor games! lu.ma/mHUB_Community…
🔬 In #Boston, our delegates had an engaging visit at @portalinno — a full-stack incubator combining high-end labs, early-stage support, and expert guidance for biotech & medtech founders. Built for founders ready to scale science into real-world impact.🚀 @iamvishnunraj
.@JohnLFlavin chatted with @Bisnow to discuss the evolving landscape of biotech hubs. John discusses that despite potential cuts to gov't funding sources, new opportunities will arise by way of biotech hubs, private industry, and non-profits. Take a look: bisnow.com/national/news/…
Biotech is a major industry in Chicago. We’re home to Tempus, Portal, the Chan Zuckerberg Biohub, Chicago Biomedical Consortium, and AbbVie. We have the full stack of startups, scientists, CROs, and labs.
Why doesn’t Chicago have a biotech scene??
Innovation needs more than ideas—it needs infrastructure. @portalinno gets it.
Great startups need great support & @portalinno provides it. Their world-class labs & resources help early-stage biotech and medtech startups thrive. Grove Biopharma, one of their member companies, is a great example of the impact. I’m glad to have toured both of the spaces!
Thank you to @susanamendoza10 for touring Portal Chicago at Fulton Labs last week! It was great showing all of the great innovation occurring at Portal, and how startups working out of our space are positively impacting Illinois. #biotech
Toured @portalinno’s HQ with @susanamendoza10 this week. Life science founders, wet lab space, and investors all under one roof.
Toured @portalinno in Fulton Market yesterday—where Chicago’s next big biotech & life sciences breakthroughs are being built. Great to meet Founder John Flavin & VP of Operations Michael Faulma. Exciting to see Chicago rising as a national hub for innovation & research.
Take a look at @JohnLFlavin's interview on @BloombergTV to discuss the evolving landscape of biotech investing. With potential NIH funding issues, private investors may need to step up to help early-stage research. #biotech bloomberg.com/news/videos/20…
Love catching our @ATLTechVillage Villagers, friends and family in the wild at #atltechweek events! Great lineup today, @zaneventurefund @portalinno @AtlantaTechWeek @OrrickTech ! 👏👏👏
