RIANA at BioEurope 2025 in Vienna

From November 3–5, the RIANA team was delighted to participate in BioEurope 2025, hosted this year in our beautiful home city of Vienna.

It was an inspiring few days filled with engaging conversations, valuable new connections, and the opportunity to reconnect with many familiar faces from the biotech community.

A special highlight was Anna’s pitch on Wednesday, where she presented our STAT5 program and introduced RIANA’s current seed investment round.

We’re proud to be part of the vibrant Austrian biotech community, and deeply appreciate the professional and charming organization and support by Life Science Austria – LISA — who made this exceptional event run so smoothly.

Thank you to everyone who contributed to such an energizing and productive conference experience!

The Austrian Biotech Community!
