"We look forward to interacting with everyone at the village and hopefully learning a few things in the process," said Jon Harmer, Bioscape's Chief Marketing Officer. "The exposure should also be helpful in connecting Bioscape with other interested parties," he adds.

In addition, 10 start-ups from the conference are selected to pitch for not only a grand prize in cash, but also expert business coaching and media exposure through PandoDaily.
A panel of ten judges, who each contributed individual investments of $10,000 to create the $100,000 grand prize, will decide who is the most innovative company. Five of the 10 judges include Josh Kopelman of First Round Capital, Shervin Pishevar of Sherpa Ventures, Kirsten Green of Forerunner Ventures, Kevin Colleran of General Catalyst, and Vic Gatto from Nashville's Jumpstart Foundry.
