About "Talk in the Cube"
With the event series "Talk in the Cube", we bring business and science together on the Berlin-Buch campus and connect founders of start-ups or life science companies with scientists, e.g. from the Max Delbrück Center, FMP, Charité and BIH. We invite experts on business topics or trends in the life sciences and highlight aspects such as 
What innovations are there in the start-ups and who is driving them forward?
How does the life science business world work and where can synergies with science be created? 
How does the "networked laboratory" and AI can work together in life science?
