“Through the forum and future partnerships, we hope the national labs, entrepreneurs and investors can form an “innovation ecosystem” in the region. Today is supposed to be about medical innovation and to illuminate what we have here in the Tri-Valley. It has a brand all its own when it comes to entrepreneurship,” Dale Kaye, CEO, Innovation Tri-Valley and Livermore Valley Chamber of Commerce.
