We’re excited to share that we’ll be attending and sponsoring the Science Social in Manchester on Tuesday 21 October 2025, following OBN’s BioSeed North event earlier in the day. The Science Social will be hosted at North Bar, Manchester.
Supporting Innovation in Life Sciences
BioSeed North marks the first Manchester edition of OBN’s popular seed-stage life sciences investment event, which brings together early-stage biotech and R&D companies with investors and industry experts from across the UK and Europe. It’s a fantastic opportunity to connect with founders, discover new technologies, and take part in conversations that shape the future of the life sciences sector.
During the day, Mary Bolt will attend BioSeed North to meet early-stage companies and explore the latest innovations. In the evening, both Mary and Victoria Walker will represent CK Group at the Science Social, hosted at North Bar, Manchester.
Partnering with OBN to Connect the Community
We’re proud to be sponsoring the Science Social once again this year — following our earlier partnership with OBN for the Oxford Science Social in June. Both events provide relaxed, welcoming environments for life science professionals to network, share ideas, and build meaningful connections after a busy day of scientific and investment discussions.
As part of our Manchester sponsorship, we’ll be supporting the evening’s refreshments and helping to create an informal space for collaboration between scientists, investors, and innovators from across the life sciences community.
“We’re really pleased to be part of BioSeed North and to continue our support for OBN’s Science Socials. It’s always inspiring to meet people driving new ideas in biotech and life sciences — and to play a part in helping those connections grow.”
— Victoria Walker, Associate Director
Connecting People and Opportunities
Events like BioSeed North and the Science Social align with what we do — connecting talented people with the organisations driving progress in life sciences, biotechnology, and pharmaceuticals.
We’re looking forward to meeting everyone attending BioSeed North and the Science Social in Manchester.
If you’re taking part, come and say hello!
