SUMMARY:The Way Forward with DE&I: Momentum Through Continued Action
DESCRIPTION:It has now been two years since the murder of George Floyd. The aftermath spurred a movement across the world\, demanding racial justice and equity. The corporate world joined this movement and started having difficult conversations and acknowledging biases and inequities in the workplace. Two years later\, what comes next? It is important to keep the discussion going and make DE&I efforts sustainable. Equity\, diversity\, and Inclusion shouldn’t be an extracurricular activity\, it should be how we do everything. \nJoin us to reflect on the past two years of focus on diversity and inclusion in the workforce. In this session\, we’ll discuss strategies for empowering leaders to drive DE&I initiatives that shape company culture. \nSpeakers: \n\nCandace Nortey\, MS\, Executive Director of DEI\, Slone Partners\nRizwana Seeham\, Manager\, Quality Assurance & Co-Chair\, ED&I Committee\, Blueprint Medicines\nGretchen Cook-Anderson\, Executive Director\, Ignite\nRachael Alford\, Ph.D.\, Head of Chemistry\, Manufacturing and Controls\, Rallybio\nNatalie Johnson\, Co-Founder and Managing Director\, Paradigm IQ

SUMMARY:Bench to BARDA Panel Series - MedTech Funding
DESCRIPTION:A 6-event series describing the various opportunities to help bring your medical device technology from the bench to BARDA funding. \nAbout this event: \nThis program is a series of 6 panel discussions with industry and government partners\, focused on providing guidance and insight into how innovators can take their solution from the benchtop to the Biomedical Advanced Research & Development Authority (BARDA). BARDA is an entity within the Department of Health & Human Services that advances innovations tackling some of our nation’s greatest health security threats. This program is a collaborative effort between incubators and accelerators who are partnered with them through their Division of Research\, Innovation & Ventures (DRIVe). Each event will have its own specific focus\, while contributing to a sequential flow for the series. Experts with specific backgrounds will be asked to help provide an overview of key resources available to innovators to help fund and advance their solution from early stages of development through late stages\, as well as provide guidance on how to navigate the funding opportunities within BARDA and BARDA DRIVe. \nThis event is a collaborative event between the following BARDA accelerators and incubators: \nBiolocity\nFirst Flight Venture Center\nNew Orleans BioInnovation Center\nPurdue University\nNew York State Center for Biotechnology\nUMass M2D2\nUniversity City Science Center\nUniversity of Missouri \nTimeline and Summary \nPanel Discussion 1: BARDA Accelerator Network – Opportunities for Early-Stage Startups \nJune 14th from 12:00PM – 1:30PM EST \nThe Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA) has partnered with 13 incubators and accelerators across the United States to help provide crucial resources to early-stage innovators looking to address our biggest health security threats with innovative solutions. These centers work together as a collaborative network to help DRIVe innovation from the benchtop to BARDA. During this event you will hear from key players in the network who will share more about the various resources and funding opportunities they have available to early-stage innovators to help get their solutions to more advanced stages\, there will also be time allotted for Q&A. Join us to learn more about what the BARDA Accelerator Network has to offer. \nPanel Discussion 2: I-Corps\, NSF and NIH REACH – Opportunities for Translational Research \nJune 17th from 12:00PM – 1:30PM EST \nA variety of federally funded programs are in place to assist early-stage inventors in successfully making the transition into entrepreneurship. The National Science Foundation (NSF) supports disruptive innovation with the non-dilutive SBIR/STTR program. As an earlier-phase extension of that support\, the NSF Innovation Corps (I-Corps) assists nascent groups in defining the value of their invention to society by engaging in the customer discovery process. During this event we will hear from I-Corps and NSF representatives\, and from the CEOs of startup companies who have participated in I-Corps programs and subsequently gone on to receive NSF awards. Speakers will then discuss their experiences together and take your questions. Join us to learn more about how the NSF pathway can advance your innovation. \nPanel Discussion 3: NIH SBIR/STTR & RADx \nJune 21st from 12:00PM – 1:30PM EST \nThe Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) and Small Business Technology Transfer (STTR)\, collectively the Small Business Programs\, are also known as America’s Seed Fund. By setting aside more than $1.2 billion from its Research & Development Funding specifically for Small Business Programs\, the NIH provides support to early stage small businesses throughout the nation. In 2020\, the NIH expanded their support of early stage medical innovation by launching the Rapid Acceleration of Diagnostics (RADx®) initiative to speed innovation in the development\, commercialization\, and implementation of technologies for COVID-19 testing. During this event\, you will hear from agency officials at NIH as well as entrepreneurs and researchers that have received funding through these mechanisms. Join us to learn more about accessing these resources for your medical innovation. \nPanel Discussion 4: BARDA DRIVe EZ-BAA – Overview & Funding Opportunities \nJune 24th from 12:00PM – 1:30PM EST \nThe Easy Broad Agency Announcement (EZ-BAA) is a contracting mechanism that allows BARDA to partner with early-stage product developers on smaller scale R&D projects. The EZ-BAA provides up to $750K in non-dilutive funds to accelerate innovations and improve the availability of transformative products and technologies to protect Americans from natural and intentional health security threats. During this event you will learn about the EZ-BAA and its process along with how to submit a complete abstract for the award. You will also learn about how the EZ-BAA differs from the BAA and which pathway is best suited for your company.

SUMMARY:The Secret Sauce: Tips & Tricks for a Successful BLUE KNIGHT™ QuickFire Challenge: Next-Generation Preparedness Solutions Application
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an Information Session about the BLUE KNIGHT™ QuickFire Challenge. Ahead of the submission deadline approaching on July 22nd\, attendees will have an opportunity to: \n• Learn more about the Challenge’s key focus areas related to infectious disease\, immunology\, & the microbiome (more details below)\n• Get the inside scoop on what makes an applicant stand out\n• Learn the do’s and don’ts for submissions\n• Ask questions to experts from Johnson & Johnson Innovation and BARDA \nAbout the Challenge: \nNew infectious diseases have been emerging with increased frequency\, furthering the likelihood of another pandemic or serious health threat occurring during our lifetime – potentially as soon as within the next decade.1 In today’s interconnected world\, there is a greater need to work together to spark potential solutions for tomorrow’s known and unknown public health threats. New innovations\, particularly those with multi-use potential\, are needed to help rapidly and efficiently respond to emerging health security threats and infectious diseases. \nBLUE KNIGHT™\, a joint initiative between Johnson & Johnson Innovation – JLABS and the Biomedical Advanced Research and Development Authority (BARDA)\, part of the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Preparedness Response (ASPR) at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS)\, seeks to answer this call by anticipating potential health security threats\, activating the global innovation community\, and amplifying scientific and technological advancements. That’s why Johnson & Johnson Innovation\, together with BARDA\, launched the BLUE KNIGHT™ QuickFire Challenge: Next-Generation Preparedness Solutions Application. \nInnovators developing potentially ground-breaking ideas or technologies that aim to enhance preparedness solutions towards future known and unknown infectious disease threats are invited to submit ideas for up to $200\,000 in total award funding and access to the global Johnson & Johnson Innovation – JLABS network through Blue Knight residency with mentorship from experts at the Johnson & Johnson Family of Companies and BARDA. Innovators must be developing potential preparedness solutions addressing at least one of the following QuickFire Challenge focus areas: \n-Targeting the host response to known and unknown future infectious disease threats\n-Enabling streamlined manufacturing of therapeutics and/or vaccines\n-Leveraging the host microbiome
