DURHAM – WRAL TechWire and LaunchBio teamed up Thursday night for a biotech live networking event at The Chesterfield featuring a “fireside chat” with LabCorp Chair CEO David King as well as a panel discussion about the future of life science in North Carolina and three startup pitches.

The event combined LaunchBio’s monthly Larger Than Life Science event with WRAL Tech Wire’s quarterly Live program.

WRAL.com is offering videos from the event, much of which was streamed live.

And the startup pitches:

  • Symberix pitches bacteria targeting to improve human health
  • Falcon Therapeutics pitches a creative cure for brain cancers
  • Lociomics using skin samples to find cancer cures
