On July 20, we had the 4th ICT Expert Seminar. The speaker was a CEO of 3bilion, a biotechnology startup company.

The CEO presented 'AI-driven genetic diagnosis of rare diseases' with the company introduction. He emphasized that 3bilion has expanded the global market share and currently it has a huge global network with 53 countries and 240 institutes all over the world. It is a remarkable growth since its establishment in 2016.

Not only focusing on the biotechnology, the CEO shared a startup launching story. 3Billion is his second startup company. One of our students asked him of the reason why the first company sort of failed and the answer was very impressive. At that time, he thought the most important thing to lead to success is a good technology. However, through his experiences, he realized the diversity makes success. Not only good technology, but also other resources such as finance, marketing, and sales are significant factors as well.

The Academic-Industry Cooperation team thinks it is a really important point and it implies a lot of things. Based on his experiences in business, he can share that kind of practical advice. We hope this Expert Seminar will be really helpful to those who want to start their own business. If you have any questions or need help, please contact 3bilion, which has a global network all over the world. It will be your opportunity!
