Event Details
Health care is being dramatically transformed by several converging forces including the accelerating growth of machine learning, genomics and precision medicine, digital technologies, changes in reimbursement, and a renewed focus on the patient at the center of care.
Regardless of your role or the specific focus of your organization, these revolutions impact the strategic challenges and opportunities that you face as you endeavor to create new value for the industry.
Led by Dr. Stanley Y. Shaw, MD, PhD, and other renowned Harvard Medical School faculty, “Inside the Health Care Ecosystem” provides business and science leaders with a deep dive into the health care ecosystem in the context of the business of health care. Through it, participants are exposed to real-world workflows and health care delivery in action, as well as the firsthand perspectives of patients and providers.
Previously only accessed by companies like Google, GE, Amgen, and athenahealth on a customized basis, this program is now open to individuals and small teams whose work impacts health care.

Event Details
For a growing number of therapies, especially specialty drugs, manufacturers can no longer assume payer coverage and patient access based on regulatory approval alone. Increasingly, manufacturers are being asked to first demonstrate the “value” of the drug – to patients and to the health care system – and thus, justify its price, before being added to a formulary. The challenge? There is no objective or shared measure of value or method for measuring it.
This event, Part I in a three part series that will explore the value of health, will focus on the changing pricing, access, and reimbursement landscape early to mid-stage biopharma companies are facing, and give recommendations about what actions they should take to ensure patient access when their drug comes to market, including:
- Assessing how different healthcare stakeholders think about value
- Understanding how the industry and manufacturers can best make the case for value
- Examining the growing use of health technology assessments in determining value
- Understanding the implementation of innovative payment methods such as value-based arrangements
- Learning about the importance of real-world evidence in determining value over time and for future therapies
Drinks and appetizers will be provided. If you’re not a MassBio member but are interested in attending, please email communications@massbio.org.

The Johnson & Johnson Innovation, JLABS (JLABS) ‘Meet with…’ series helps life sciences entrepreneurs, as well as the academic community, connect with potential partners including corporate venture, VCs, Angels, and other investment entities.
On May 30th, Santé Ventures will present an overview of the fund, it’s investment strategy, primary areas of interest, and a few investment case studies. Santé Ventures are early stage investors (Series A) with a preference to lead or co-lead deals. They look for opportunities where an efficient use of capital leads to an early value inflection point. The biologic underpinnings of the technology should be fairly well worked out prior to investment — they do not fund basic research projects. Team is important, they are hands-on investors and look for opportunities where they can bring value beyond just the financing.
Key areas of interest:
- Medical Devices
- Biotechnology
- Healthcare service models
- Healthcare IT
