Cord Blood Leadership Summit

Annually, a representative of each Industry Partner typically the CEO is invited to a retreat with CBA officers and directors to informally discuss mutual interests and consider collaborative initiatives.  Example topics include (a) industry and bank collaborations, (b) innovations and R&D pathways, (c) legislation, regulations and standards, and (d) future directions for the industry.
