The mission of the Dermatology Entrepreneurship conference is to build a community of physicians, entrepreneurs, and their colleagues who are excited about developing ideas into innovative products that can be commercialized.

The 2nd Annual Dermatology Entrepreneurship conference will focus on fostering the early development of innovative products and services by physicians and entrepreneurs for dermatologic health. Held the day prior to the start of the annual American Academy of Dermatology meeting, the conference will serve to inspire and educate physicians and entrepreneurs in the skills and steps necessary to bring forward their ideas and inventions. It will simultaneously function as a networking event for cultivating an entrepreneurial ecosystem that includes physicians, researchers, entrepreneurs, investors, strategic corporate partners, service providers and other stakeholders.
