Forge the Future: Expanded Pathways for BLUE KNIGHT™ Collaboration

BLUE KNIGHT™, a joint initiative between Johnson & Johnson
Innovation – JLABS (‘JLABS’) and the Biomedical Advanced Research and
Development Authority (BARDA), offers emerging life science companies an
opportunity to join the JLABS incubator ecosystem with additional engagement
from BARDA. BLUE KNIGHT™ companies, selected for their mutual alignment to the
Johnson & Johnson Family of Companies’ and BARDA areas of interest, may
also have an opportunity to receive additional support, including fee
assistance and mentorship.

If you are looking to learn more about BLUE KNIGHT™, mutual areas of interest between the Johnson & Johnson Family of Companies and BARDA, and what the application process entails, join the Information Session and Fireside Chat on July 22, 2021 at 1:00pm ET. Register and learn more here:
