This year we celebrated 40 years of innovation in Massachusetts and why “This is the place.”

Over the last four decades, Massachusetts has become the place where innovation thrives—from a nascent life sciences hub to the global drug development leader. At the 2025 State of Possible Conference, attendees from the lab to the C-suite heard engaging panel discussions and informative keynotes on what’s next in both the science and business of biopharma—and why this is the place where we champion a brighter, healthier future.
