Join Our Network for Good
Jeff Hessekiel, Executive Vice President, General Counsel and Secretary of Exelixis and Board Co-Chair of Life Science Cares Bay Area, is an industry leader who recognizes the power of our model of ‘collective impact.’
Hessekiel offers, “The business of life sciences is super challenging, demanding that life science professionals be smart, talented, and hard-working. In my experience, they are also kind, compassionate, and generous. Life Science Cares takes great advantage of those positive attributes, unlocking the potential for life science companies and people to be a powerful force for good in their communities. That’s why I jumped at the chance to help build a Life Science Cares affiliate in the Bay Area.
“The societal problems we confront are immense, however, in the life science industry we’re used to tackling big problems. It is a privilege to work with the staff, corporate and individual supporters, and partners of Life Science Cares Bay Area to find new and innovative ways to deliver assistance to neighbors who need and deserve a helping hand.”
We look forward to welcoming you to our powerful network of life science companies working together to do so much good. Together, we can make a difference.
