UC San Francisco hosted Queen Máxima of the Netherlands on Tuesday, as part of a Dutch trade mission to California.
Two Dutch cancer experts at UCSF, Jeroen Roose, PhD, and Laura van ‘t Veer, PhD, discussed their work and how it has been supported by the entrepreneurial culture at UCSF and the Bay Area at large.
“People are very open and forgiving towards new ideas,” Roose said to the audience of Dutch tech companies and startups. “I believe this nurtures innovation and entrepreneurship.”
