Pier 70 Ventures Managing Partner, R. Miller Adams delivers the keynote at Venture Mechanics Startup Incubator / Accelerator event, Black in Tech Venture Conference.   Keynote will be followed by a panel with Aina A., Madin Akpo-Esambe, Sarah Studer, and moderated by Evan Poncelet.

Pier 70 celebrates the continued success of our portfolio company, Acclinate, and the team’s successful completion of a $7 million Series A round. “This is an important mile marker in their journey to success, because it validates their thesis, their vision and most of all, their ability to execute flawlessly as a team. Del and Tiffany have maintained a culture of camaraderie and excellence in a growing team, while establishing themselves in a nascent market and are now regarded as the leaders in bringing equity to clinical trials." Says Preetha Ram, Managing Partner.

Shaun Hawkins, Managing Partner adds, “Establishing trust with large pharmaceutical companies is an art and a science, particularly when it relates to clinical trials. Acclinate’s attention to customer and community needs along with the manner in which they execute have led multiple partnerships with Big Pharma. We look forward to participating in Acclinate’s continued growth. We’re confident that the addition of strategic investors, Cencora and Labcorp will serve to accelerate that growth.”
