SUMMARY:Virtual Lunch & Learn: From Half-Baked to Fully-Baked: Getting Your Product Right for Faster Market Uptake
DESCRIPTION:Have you ever wondered if your product truly has the upside you believe\, or have sold to your investors? Given the high failure rate of new products\, it’s worth understanding what separates the winners from the losers\, and how to better identify which path you’re on. \n“From Half-Baked to Fully-Baked: Getting Your Product Right for Faster Market Uptake” is designed for entrepreneurs who run lean and can’t afford a new product failure. The talk is based on case studies from local Inc. 5000 companies that\, while highly capable\, made costly product missteps due to overconfidence and hubris. \nJoin Kevin Renner\, a business coach\, go-to-market strategy advisor\, and fractional CMO\, who helps emerging companies accelerate growth by getting their products right and their stories straight. \nWatch HERE

SUMMARY:Oregon Bio Women CONNECT | Portland
DESCRIPTION:When the Playbook Runs Out: Innovation and You 2.0\n\nInnovation that changes the playing field\, splinters the glass ceiling and grows talent requires hard work. And evolution\, flexibility and scalability. \nOn June 11\, Oregon Bio Women will be in force to connect with each other and four of the brilliant minds of 6453 Forward\, the Nike alumni-founded think tank and talent powerhouse. \nWhether the sports or the life sciences industry\, emerging leaders and established pros must both navigate and make change\, pivot with purpose in uncertainty\, and create internal influence with vision and resilience. It’s time to test assumptions and  hone our ever-changing\, go-forward strategies. \nOregon Life Sciences Interim President & CEO Dr. Ndeye Makalou is scheduled to attend – come say hello! \nAt CONNECT 2026\, we’ll spend focused time with leader legends. Our presenters/panelists/pod leaders serve as the core team of 6453 Forward – a Portland-based consulting firm and talent marketplace founded by Nike alums\, specializing in brand strategy\, marketing\, and operational optimization. Operating in the “space between traditional consultancies and creative brand studios\,” each brings the expertise and connections of former Nike leaders to deliver innovative\, fast-paced business and coaching solutions born from pivot-quick experience. \nThe topline of CONNECT 2026 discussion topics: \n\nThe Squeeze: Leading up and down through change – how to build influence upward and trust downward when everything around is shifting.\nChangemaking and evolving immediately – creating the roadmap when strategy is unclear/still unfolding.\nDriving momentum through the art and science of innovation.\nLeaders and their impact in times of change and uncertainty – practical\, actionable strategies/tactics to implement in times of change.\nTeaming up and down – adjusting course in real time\, and keeping momentum when the playbook runs out.\n\nLet’s be clear; there’s a lot of juice to squeeze. This landmark – and fun – Oregon Bio Women (OBW) gathering offers a workshop-style format with targeted networking time\, industry leader presentations and panel discussions\, followed by facilitated small-group interactions with topical pods. This annual event is one of several OBW pro dev sessions providing professional and personal development opportunities for emerging-leader women in the life science and STEM careers stratum\, as well as key linkages to mentoring opportunities and industry-specific support. \nRegister HERE

SUMMARY:From Discovery to Clinical Impact: Translating Academic Science into Therapeutic Impact
DESCRIPTION:Join OHSU Innovates for the third installment of the Drug Discovery Series\, featuring Tom Scanlan\, Ph.D.\, professor of chemical physiology and biochemistry at the OHSU School of Medicine and co-founder and scientific adviser to Autobahn Therapeutics\, in conversation with Travis Cook\, senior director of OHSU Innovates. \nThis session will explore how discoveries from an academic lab can advance toward therapeutic development while strengthening the underlying science. Scanlan will share the translational path behind OHSU-discovered technology now being developed by Autobahn\, including elunetirom (ABX-002)\, an investigational therapeutic candidate being evaluated for major depressive disorder and bipolar depression. \nDesigned for researchers interested in drug discovery but uncertain how it fits within an academic career or aligns with current research goals\, the conversation will highlight how translational thinking can sharpen research questions\, foster new collaborations\, expand funding and development opportunities and turn scientific discovery into intellectual property with broader therapeutic potential. \nRegister HERE
