Last week, the Life Science Bridge hosted its annual Webinar “Bridging the Gap,” bringing together experts from diverse fields to discuss the challenges, breakthroughs, and future of life science innovation in women’s health. Whether you missed it live or want to revisit key insights, you can now access the full recordings at your convenience.

This past Wednesday, SACC San Diego hosted a fantastic Happy Hour in collaboration with Booze Brothers Brewing Co., bringing together our community for an evening of great beer, meaningful connections, and an exclusive behind-the-scenes tour of the brewery.

“Women's health is at the forefront of discussions in 2025, with increasing recognition of the unique challenges faced by women throughout life. Hormonal fluctuations during puberty, menstruation, pregnancy and menopause significantly affect chronic conditions like autoimmune disease like Type 1 Diabetes, with long-term implications for overall well-being.”

“Living with Type 1 Diabetes isn’t easy for anyone — but it is arguably more challenging for girls and women. In fact, the research says so, too. 

As someone with Type 1 Diabetes, I’ve experienced how hormonal changes—from puberty to the menstrual cycle and even pregnancy—present constant challenges in diabetes management. So, let’s talk about the ups and downs of managing diabetes as a woman. “

SACC San Diego had the privilege of touring GKN Aerospace’s brand-new facility, one of our newest corporate members! As a global leader in aerostructures and engine systems, GKN supports over 90% of the world’s aircraft and engine manufacturers, driving innovation across commercial and defense aviation.

The Life Science Bridge is happy to announce that the much-appreciated life science webinar "Bridging the Gap" will take place on March 27th this year. The Life Science Bridge is a joint initiative by the four Swedish-American Chamber of Commerce in San Diego, San Francisco/Silicon Valley, New England, and Minnesota. Together we cover four of the biggest life science clusters in the U.S.

Join us to discuss, learn and empower each other on this year's vital topic: Women's Health

Thank you SACC San Diego for an amazing experience!
