The company won $10,000 after besting 15 other seed-stage and early-stage life science firms that also pitched at the Oct. 22 conference in Tampa. More than 20 investor judges worked over the past several months to review a record-breaking number of applications for BioPitch, and they determined the 16 semi-finalists who presented at the conference, said Jane Teague, who organized the pitch competition and is executive director of the Institute for Commercialization of Florida Technology.

In addition to the pitch competition, the conference featured biotech leaders presenting research updates, and panels discussing the state of the industry in Florida.
