“An engaging and interactive conference, providing an opportunity for R&D leaders in neuropsychiatry to roll up their sleeves and discuss issues that we are collectively facing in this rapidly evolving field.”
Aaron Koenig, Chief Medical Officer, Delix Therapeutics

“The upcoming years look promising for the field of psychiatry. According to J.P. Morgan’s Annual Biopharma Licensing and Venture Report, 2023 witnessed significant venture capital investment in neuroscience, a trend that is expected to persist. Accompanying this surge is a notable increase in investments in mental health apps and AI-driven mental health solutions. I am eager to learn how drug developers plan to capitalize on this favorable landscape.”
