July 16th BioTecX

Join us at Keystone K-State Olathe to hear Jason McKinley, CEO of Arc Technologies Group, discuss “From Silos to Synergy: The IT/OT Convergence Journey.”

This BioTecX isn’t just a conversation—it’s a call to action. Dismantling silos between enterprise IT and fragmented OT systems unlocks real-time intelligence, streamlines operations, and accelerates innovation. But it is also necessary to compete in the ever-evolving Life Science landscape.

Precision, compliance, speed, security, and quality are non-negotiable, and any divide between IT and OT is no longer sustainable.

Join Arc Technologies Group and AdAstraBio as we decode the People, Process, and Technology behind successful IT/OT convergence—and chart a bold path from disconnected infrastructure to integrated intelligence.

February 27th BioTecX

Join us at Keystone Innovation District to hear Nick Love, CEO and Co-Founder of Love LifeScience, discuss turning the perception of “Why NOT Kansas” for startup innovation into “Why not Kansas?”

Through the perspective of an entrepreneur, this talk will take a journey to tackle negative perceptions of Kansas as it relates to the bio-innovation ecosystem and will present how the local Kansas entrepreneur can build, test product, and scale a company all within the State of Kansas while proposing specific areas in which the region can continue to grow to support local bio-innovation. This should provide a high-level roadmap for researchers, physicians, and entrepreneurs to build their technologies in the State of Kansas while offering innovation ecosystem builders the opportunity to learn the nuances of the ecosystem from the eyes of the entrepreneur.
