IN-PERSON: “Join us in Houston for the launch of our Portal Pours series, a monthly-ish gathering of local, regional, and national life science leaders. This inaugural Houston Pours, “The New Faces of Houston Biotech,” promises an enlightening panel discussion featuring Ritu Shah, Managing Director at Portal Innovations, in conversation with rising stars of the Houston startup scene: Rahul Aras of Iterion Therapeutics, Sarah Hein of March Bio, and Michael Torres of Crossbridge Biotech.

“Each Portal Pours session is divided into two parts: a content-rich segment where insights and ideas are shared, followed by an open networking opportunity to foster connections and collaboration. Don’t miss this chance to be part of a growing ecosystem, where innovation flourishes, partnerships are forged, and the life sciences sector gets stronger with each meeting. Be there to network, learn, and contribute to the future of life sciences in Houston and beyond! Additionally, Portal Pours Houston will be taking place right outside of Portal Innovations’ future home, currently under construction and operating Q3 2024.”
