A limited number of lunches will be available for registered attendees on a first-come, first-served basis.

PhD Plus is excited to announce a lunch and learn workshop to discuss how to build a solid foundation from recruitment to traditional growth patterns, non-traditional financing, and how to develop successful management skills.

Peyton Anderson is the founding CEO of Affinergy and helped co-found SciQuest in 1995. At SciQuest he raised capital, recruited the management team, made strategic partner deals, and orchestrated acquisitions. In 2003, Mr. Anderson joined Affinergy and has been involved in investor funding and recruiting advisors and board members. Affinergy was spun out of Duke in 2004 based on a technology that helps develops products in orthopedic and soft tissue repair markets. Mr. Anderson is currently on the Board of Directors of the North Carolina Biotechnology Center and the NC Biosciences Organization. He was previous on the executive committee of the Board of Directors for the Council for Entrepreneurial Development.
