Biotech Career Coaching and Training for Scientists
From bench scientist to biotech business development: learn it, practise it, make the move
An on-demand course and one-to-one coaching for scientists moving into biotech sales and business development, from a scientist who has led commercial teams in life science.
Is this the next step for you?
Many scientists are asked to talk to customers, partners or investors without ever being taught how. Others want to leave the bench for a commercial role but do not know how companies in biotech buy, sell and partner. This programme translates science into the language of business.
Who it is for
- Researchers who want to move into sales, business development or a commercial role.
- Scientists in biotech companies who now have to speak to customers or partners.
- Early-career professionals building a commercial profile.
- Small companies and corporates that want their teams trained in biotech business development.
