The Emerging Leaders Network (ELN), a division of Georgia Bio (GaBio), is devoted to promoting networking between emerging and established professionals within the Georgia Life Sciences Community. ELN’s programs are designed to facilitate the growth and development of Georgia based biotechnology academic institutions, industries and service providers. A goal of ELN is to retain and cultivate locally educated talent, as well as to welcome and integrate new members to the Georgia Biotechnology Community. In pursuit of these goals, ELN provides opportunities for developing industry contacts, mentoring, and career enhancement through a variety of programs.

Bi-monthly Networking Hours promote a relaxed networking and social experience for all people working or interested in the biotechnology field in Georgia. ELN also provides a more intimate exchange of information with its Small Group Dinner Series, where an area professional moderates a focused discussion over dinner on a specific topic. Tours organized at different GaBio affiliate companies provide a unique networking opportunity as well as a “behind the scenes” look at successful Georgia Biotechnology companies and the various career opportunities that exist at these companies. Finally, the ELN offers additional programs including the ELN Internship, Bench to Business & First Contact Programs.  Learn About These Programs Here.
