Please join us for the monthly Swiss American Chamber of Commerce Stammtisch held every 2nd Thursday of the month at 5:30 pm at Swissnex. This Club Entreprenuer Stammtisch will be hosted by Marc Dangeard.
We will hear from Club Entreprenuer's first idea owner, Stephane Follonier, President, CEO & CTO of Canderis, on the path his idea has taken since completing Club Entrepenuer. Also presenting will be Sven Loetscher, Director of Operations, and Linsey Fan, Chief Business Officer.
Canderis Biosciences Inc. emerged from the Club Entrepreneur Program of the Swiss American Chamber of Commerce in early 2005. Its primary focus is to address the pre-clinical and clinical diagnostics markets by providing innovative products relying on its simple, cost effective, yet highly sensitive core technology.

They will also provide an outlook into the future of the company.
