Editor's note: Suzanne Altobello, Ph.D. is a Marketing and Entrepreneurship professor at UNC Pembroke and UNC Wilmington who moved to North Carolina in 2014, after a 14 year academic career at Southern Illinois University. She has always had a hand in the entrepreneurial ecosystem, from Carbondale, IL to St. Louis Missouri, and now in the Wilmington area. She partners local start-up companies with university students for experiential marketing projects and has been an angel investor herself.

I  had an exciting adult field trip in my own town, within my own university, as I explored the world of biotechnology and life science business opportunities in Wilmington.
