#BioStart

Five biotech startup CEOs and leaders discuss the challenges of raising finance in the life sciences industry at the BIA's Start-up Festival.

Janette Thomas, CEO of Five Alarm Bio, Jeroen Verheyen, CEO of Semarion, Aidan Courtney, Chairman of VascVersa, Jonathan Kwok, CEO of Infinitopes, and Dan Peters, CEO of MarraBio, share their insights on the different stumbling blocks that biotech start-ups face when talking to investors.

This video is essential viewing for anyone who is leading and considering raising finance for a biotech start-up. It is also a valuable resource for investors looking to learn more about the biotech sector.

Key takeaways from the video:

✅ Investors are often unfamiliar with the long-term drug discovery and R&D processes involved, which can make it difficult to explain the value of a biotech start-up.

✅ Biotech start-ups need to have a strong business case and a clear understanding of the market they are targeting to raise finance.

✅ Biotech start-ups need to be able to communicate their vision and passion for their company to investors.
