Guest of Honor TechTalk Series with Asset Abdualiyev, CEO & Founder of Silkroad Innovation Hub, USA

QIST association presents the September edition of our Guest of Honor TECHTALK Series — a monthly global seminar spotlighting inspiring career transitions from academia to industry and tech entrepreneurship.

In this session, we are honored to have Asset Abdualiyev, founder and CEO of Silkroad Innovation Hub, and his community connect ambitious startups and global enterprises with the boundless opportunities of the U.S. market — right in the heart of Silicon Valley.

About the Talk:
AI is transforming science — from discovering new molecules to building entire drug pipelines by predicting potency, safety, and manufacturability. This is where research meets business action, powered by one AI-driven platform - assistant, agent, or co-scientist. To explore these intersections, QIST is launching a new AI-focused series. We are excited to welcome a special guest speaker from Silicon Valley — a leader and investor with over a decade of experience in innovation, policy, and entrepreneurship. He discusses:

Why PhDs can become great startup founders
Challenges scientists face when transitioning into entrepreneurship
Ongoing projects at Silkroad Innovation Hub
Future collaboration opportunities between scientists and startup founders

Whether you're a PhD student, postdoc, or clinician exploring your next step — this session is for you.
Audience Q&A: Selected questions from participants were addressed during the live session.
