RESI Europe 2025

The international conference Redefining Early Stage Investments (RESI), organized by Life Science Nation (LSN), will take place in Barcelona from April 1 to 3, 2025, with the goal of connecting early-stage startups with international investors to establish strategic alliances. Additionally, it will also be aimed at scaleups, service providers, and tech hubs. This boutique conference, typically held in the United States, will return to Europe and choose Barcelona to host its second edition thanks to the collaboration of Biocat, the City of Barcelona, and the Government of Catalonia.

The event will bring together over 250 investors specializing in seed, Series A, and Series B stages, and will focus on sectors such as drug development, medical devices, diagnostics, and digital health. The first day of the conference will be held in person and will include partnering sessions and activities like the Healthtech Market Access Panel, organized by Biocat. The following two days will be held virtually, with spaces for pitches, workshops, and keynote conferences in the sector.

• It is the only event with a 1:1 ratio of investors to startups. RESI EUROPE Barcelona will bring between 250 and 300 international investors. These investors are part of an international network and are looking for seed, Series A, and Series B opportunities. 
• It is an event dedicated to global investors and licensing partners in the pharmaceutical, medical devices, diagnostics, and digital health sectors.
