Here are some recommendations on how to make the most out of your LSIFF experience
LSIFF brings together an unusually early cohort of founders and research teams. For many, this is their first interaction with investors. Your approach can make a significant difference, both for them and for you.
Below are recommended strategies for an impactful experience:
1. Educate, guide, influence
Many teams are still defining markets, business models, and regulatory pathways. This creates a unique opportunity to shape future ventures long before formal due diligence.
Your feedback has real impact.
2. Scout strategically
Before the event, review the case catalogue and identify the projects that align with your thematic interests, investment thesis, or strategic pipeline needs.
Look for:
- Unmet medical needs
- Platform technologies
- IP position and novelty
- Regulatory feasibility
- Founder profiles
3. Think longer horizons
Most LSIFF projects are pre-seed and pre-company. Investment opportunities will emerge later, but relationship-building starts now.
The investors who benefit most from LSIFF think in terms of:
- Future deal flow
- Technology landscape mapping
- Early partnerships and licensing
- Strategic co-development
We are looking forward to having you on June 15!
