A visit with one of Virginia's innovation leaders! Earlier this week I had the pleasure of visiting Jeff Conroy to present him with Virginia Bio's 2024 Outstanding Contributions to Bioscience Award. (Jeff was recognized at the May #THRiVE conference in Alexandria but he was unable to attend in person.) His years-in-the-making achievement with Embody, Inc.'s acquisition by Zimmer Biomet is but only one accomplishment and contribution Jeff has made to Virginia's biotech ecosystem, and he continues to give back. We again thank Jeff for his years of leadership at Virginia Bio, his instrumental support of the Virginia Catalyst, and his continuing mentorship of young life science companies. We are all the better for your presence in our community! https://lnkd.in/eSb-V-gV

Congrats Jeff!

3moThank you John Newby and Virginia Bio! Congrats to Jim Powers the other winner! This is appreciated but really something that sixty people at Embody, Inc. deserve; I was just lucky enough to be on their team! This also highlights the power of the Virginia Bio, Virginia Catalyst, and VIPC | Virginia Innovation Partnership Corporation community. The people in this community help each other and many have become life-long friends and mentors. Keep up the strong work!
