It helps to have true experience in the room.

When thinking about the limitations of traditional executive search firms that operate in the field of Cell & Gene Therapy, I concluded that a knowledge gap existed that might be narrowed through the inclusion of a Scientific Advisory Board. I was convinced enough to launch a new company based around this idea.


Here are the key finding so far..
