“As representatives of AGA Medical, now a part of St. Jude Medical, we highly value our participation in all LifeScience Alley Events. We found the 2010 conference to be well organized and attended. We were pleased to meet a number of local life science professionals and entrepreneurs.  

What an excellent forum for learning and networking!”
