The Leiden Bio Science Park Foundation, Leiden International Centre and Science meets Business are looking forward to welcoming you to meet, mingle, inspire, play and connect. Accompanied by drinks, ample bites, music and interactive entertainment.
Leiden science based network XXL:
Meet people you wouldn’t usually meet
Combining the multiple networks will ensure you will meet people from new and different backgrounds. We’ll be bringing together (start-up) entrepreneurs, educators, students, researchers, science based business professionals, government officials… pretty much the entire Leiden based Life Science & Health community and more.
What to expect:
Science based entrepreneurship inspiration and fun
Connect with professionals who have been active in the Leiden Bio Science Park for years and meet new faces from the Life Science & Health ecosystem and the international community. Receive brief updates from the Leiden Bio Science Park and enjoy short pitches from startups in our community. Top that off with bites, drinks, DJ and (also not so) science inspired games and entertainment.
Meeting the right people:
Easy!
As usual we will make your meeting the right people on location as easy as possible. From stickers indicating what you're open to (e.g. finding jobs, internships or just new faces), to networking games. So no worries if you are not the most extroverted type: we got you.

Helping internationals connect in Leiden
Leiden International Centre
Adjusting to life in a new country can be difficult at first, however it's important to know that you are seldom alone in your experiences as an international relocating to the Netherlands. There are more than 4 million people living in the Netherlands who are first or second-generation migrants, and, in many cities, you will find more than a hundred different nationalities living alongside one another. This means that there are many internationals around to socialise with. However, although there may be a large number of internationals living in the Netherlands, it can be difficult at first to know where to begin meeting them.
That is where LIC comes in!
