EPIC is a unique face-to-face opportunity for discovering high-value projects & ventures. Holistic by design, this program delivers cross-functional & cross industry representation where the common denominator lies in innovation, specifically commercialization. It creates & facilitates an open market for win-win partnerships. EPIC challenges the "typical players" to develop innovative business models for bringing underutilized assets to market. Never before seen real world stories, corporate matchmaking and real time deal making set the stage for a historic inaugural event so game changing - it can only be called EPIC.

This event will join together global leaders in R&D, innovation, engineering, strategy, marketing, business development, legal, IP, funders (VCs, PEs, and Banking), entrepreneurs, and deal-makers to develop innovative partnerships for business development. Internal and external entrepreneurs will have the opportunity to access high-qualified, high-end investors with capital to spend.

A Multi-faceted and Collaborative Event Format :

• A recognized expert in this space sets the stage within a key theme or challenge.
• This will be followed by a Diverse Points of View discussion where contributing cross-functional team members share their perspectives from within their specific function area. You'll hear from "both sides of the street."
• Each section will be then brought to life through a case study showcasing the key theme in action, concluding with an EPIC Mash-up.
• EPIC Mash-ups will take place throughout the conference in an intimate, collaborative setting serving as a catalyst to new partnerships and Deal-flow.
