Health~Holland and The Termeer Foundation Announce the Transatlantic Connections Award honoree 2023.
Health~Holland is proud to announce Cinzia Silvestri from Bi/ond as the honoree of the 2023 Transatlantic Connections Award. The Henri Termeer Transatlantic Connections Award is established by The Termeer Foundation, in partnership with Health~Holland, to honor and recognize emerging biotech entrepreneurs to strengthen transatlantic relations between the two life science regions Massachusetts and the Netherlands through expected or ongoing global expansion. The awardee receives Fellowship status within the Termeer Foundation.
The Henri Termeer Fellowship Program is named in honor of the late Henri Termeer, a visionary leader in the biotechnology industry and designed to support first time CEOs who are patient focused and working to meet an unmet need through innovative science and passion. The support of the Termeer Foundation includes mentoring, networking and professional development intended to facilitate connections, break down silos, strengthen skillsets and ultimately enable a diverse array of current and future healthcare leaders who bring much-needed solutions to patients. Termeer Fellows have access to a network of industry leaders and mentors, opportunities for in-person and virtual network building, as well as professional and leadership development programming provided by top executive coaches and leadership development consultants.
“Since the Foundation's inception, the Henri Termeer Fellowship Program has focused on supporting and mentoring the next generation of biotech entrepreneurs. We have done this with a rigorous interview process to select Termeer Fellows each year that have the same values and passion to make a difference and carry forward Henri’s legacy. It is inspiring to know that we are impacting a new generation of life science leaders.” -Belinda Termeer, President, Co-Founder and Board Chair
