Genesis is one of the largest life science and healthcare networking conferences in London, held every December. Its organizers, One Nucleus and LINK-J, signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) of partnership in December 2017, and LINK-J participates in Genesis every year.
The conference was conducted in a hybrid format. Senior executives and decision makers from the life sciences, technology and investment sectors joined as usual.
