the value orientation starting at pre-clinical candidate level exiting at clinical proof of concept
stream lining the development through an embedded collaboration with co-owned global CRO network based on aligned incentives
minimizing the fixed cost through managing asset portfolios by proven professional drug hunters and drug developer management teams
maintaining a pro-active pharma partner oriented exit strategy through call options and other mechanisms of early partner participation
We are committed to capitalizing on the unique opportunities in biotech and pharma, where we can add value in development or regulatory strategy by utilizing resources of our portfolio CRO companies.
