    Happy Friday! OUTbio SD would like to celebrate the Stonewall Uprising Anniversary Day. The events on this day 55 years ago were a pivotal moment for LGBTQ+ rights. The bravery seen from participants of this event, such as Marsha P. Johnson, is one of the reasons why Pride Month is held in June. Feel free to click on the following links to learn more about this watershed moment in LGBTQ+ history:  https://lnkd.in/diPCQSC  https://lnkd.in/d8XNpiG

    🌟 Lately, I’ve been spending a lot of time with leaders and organizations discussing the concept of Psychological Safety. At its core, it's about feeling that we can be our authentic selves at work. Imagine how insanely productive, engaged, inspired, innovative, and GREAT we’d all be if we truly could be ourselves. 🌈✨ Given that it’s Pride Month 🏳️🌈, there's no one better to talk about this topic than the incredible Jackiee W., a Board Member of OUTbio San Diego. Jackiee works tirelessly to empower LGBTQIA+ professionals in the life sciences through networking, education, and advocacy. 💪🔬📚 The statistics she shares are startling (trust me, you have to listen) and she offers valuable tips on how companies, leaders, and individuals can create workplaces where everyone can thrive. 🏢🌟 And I’ll be transparent. This is not a 5-minute chat. We completely got carried away—it's 12 minutes! But please, watch, listen, learn, and grow. 🌱👂 Happy Pride Month! 🎉🏳️🌈 #psychologicalsafety #authentic #pridemonth

    Together with Goodwin Law, OUTbio San Diego hosted a spectacular LGBTQ+ networking mixer on June 5th at East Village Brewing Company for the #BIO2024 International Convention attendees here in San Diego! Additionally, this was perfect timing to kick off #Pride Month, celebrating and commemorating #LGBTQ+ solidarity, collectivity, and identity. With the help of local San Diego singer and entertainer, Justin Renaissance (justinrenaissance.com), we kicked off the event to his new single, Pride Song, while biotech industry professionals networked and mingled, as they continued to empower each other through advocacy, development, and support - the core mission of OUTbio San Diego. We want to pay special recognition to Goodwin Law (goodwinlaw.com) for sponsoring the evening's event. Without their support, this truly would not have been possible. Thank you to 147photos.com and Antoine Didienne for donating his time and amazing work with professional photography during the event (professional photos coming soon)! Thank you to Creative Happens Events for the super festive photo booth, allowing us to have some fun and preserve our memories forever here. We also wanted to highlight all of our 2023-2024 Inaugural sponsors for OUTbio San Diego, who were all able to be present to accept their crystal awards for their generous contributions to making OUTbio San Diego a prominent fixture in the San Diego LGBTQ+ community! Platinum Sponsors: Travere Therapeutics Inizio Evoke Silver Sponsor: AmpersandPeople Bronze Sponsor: Takeda Lastly, we will never stop thanking YOU -- the folks who show up everyday to make a huge impact to the biotech and life sciences community, while being your true and uncompromising self. This Pride season, let your rainbow 🌈 fly higher than ever before. Be proud today (and everyday) for the postive changes and impact you make tomorrow. We can't wait to gather with you all again for the next OUTbio San Diego event. Stay informed by signing up for our newsletter at outbiosandiego.org! With 🏳️🌈 Pride 🏳️⚧️, The OUTbio San Diego Board
