As LabCentral and the J&J Innovation Center both celebrate turning 10 in 2023, join us for an interactive afternoon as we commemorate a decade of collaboration and innovation dedicated to supporting the life sciences. We’ll revisit the past 10 years of our partnership and peek into the future through a community designed art exhibit, brought to life by the students at Artists for Humanity. 

We invite you to share your part of the story as we visually recreate the decade-long journey of the LabCentral & JJI partnership as well as the partnership with everyone in our innovation community. Be a part of the conversation with key members from our interwoven ecosystem as they highlight both the achievements that we have all made together along the way in addition to the people that made them possible. Enjoy a networking event while having the opportunity to help inspire the vision for the next 10 years of partnering together. 

The artwork created over the course of the event will be permanently exhibited at our LabCentral 700 Main Street location for all to enjoy for years to come as we continue to innovate to further advance biomedical innovation and bring much needed solutions to patients.
