Calling all businesses, researchers and organisations who are focused on life sciences in Townsville and surrounding areas.

The Queensland Chief Entrepreneur and Life Sciences Queensland have partnered with Smart Precinct NQ to host a roundtable in Townsville as part of the 2024 Regional Roadshow.
