Our Impact
Our Community Support
In the life sciences we have the privilege of driving meaningful impact on a global scale, and together, we can make a difference in ways that go beyond our day-to-day work. At Locust Walk, we’re committed to supporting causes and initiatives that matter deeply to our team, our clients, and the broader community.
Season of Giving Thanks
We launched our Season of Giving Thanks initiative in 2020, and we’re proud to have made it an annual tradition. Each year, our team identifies organizations that are personally meaningful and aligned with our mission. In gratitude to our valued partners and friends, we make a donation on their behalf to the charitable organization of their choice, extending our collective impact even further.
Supported Charities:
Industry Partnerships
Locust Walk builds meaningful connections across the life sciences through strategic partnerships, thought-leadership programs, and curated events. We co-host the annual Align Summit with MassBio and McKinsey & Co., bringing together leaders from biopharma, academia, and the investment community to highlight emerging science and industry trends. We also provide executive development programming through partners such as BIO International, MassBio, and LabCentral, offering practical guidance on capital raising and company building.
Additionally, we host exclusive, senior-level gatherings—from interest-based meetups to pitch-free networking events and our East Meets West sessions at JPM—designed to foster deep, relationship-driven collaboration across the global life sciences ecosystem.
