First Lady Jill Biden will speak at the JP Morgan Healthcare Conference in San Francisco, focusing on women’s health research and innovation.
San Francisco: The JP Morgan Healthcare Conference is kicking off at the Hyatt Regency, and it’s going to be quite the event. First Lady Jill Biden is set to make an appearance, which means we can expect motorcades and tight security on Tuesday.
This year’s conference, now called Fierce JPM Week, is a big deal in the biotech and pharma world. It’s the second largest revenue-generating conference in San Francisco, raking in around $90 million last year. The name “Fierce” comes from a trade publication, not a drag queen connection.
Attendees are usually big players in the industry, and they don’t mind splurging on expenses. Remember when a cup of coffee cost $21.25 back in 2019? Yeah, that’s the kind of pricing we’re talking about.
What’s really exciting this year is Jill Biden’s visit. She’s expected to land at San Francisco International Airport on Monday around 4:30 PM. Her speech is scheduled for Tuesday at 2:40 PM, where she’ll discuss advancing women’s health research.
During her session, she’ll share insights on the White House Initiative on Women’s Health Research, aiming to change how we approach and fund women’s health. It’s a crucial topic, and she’ll be in town until Wednesday.
