Having spent yesterday morning at Arvinas in Science Park, then meeting the Babbidge Construction team, I am reflecting on the diversity of our member base. We updated our mission statement to highlight how we represent the entire life sciences ecosystem in CT. We continue to grow at a rapid pace with the goal of everyone touching life sciences joining and seeing the value of their membership. I capped my day off with the Greater New Haven Chamber of Commerce’s summer social at Jack’s, which was packed. Check out some more of their events blow.
