Download or read book Valuation in Life Sciences written by Boris Bogdan and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-04-19 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Valuation is a hot topic among life sciences professionals. There is no clear understanding on how to use the different valuation approaches and how to determine input parameters. Some do not value at all, arguing that it is not possible to get realistic and objective numbers out of it. Some claim it to be an art. In the following chapters we will provide the user with a concise val- tion manual, providing transparency and practical insight for all dealing with valuation in life sciences: project and portfolio managers, licensing executives, business developers, technology transfer managers, entrep- neurs, investors, and analysts. The purpose of the book is to explain how to apply discounted cash flow and real options valuation to life sciences p- jects, i.e. to license contracts, patents, and firms. We explain the fun- mentals and the pitfalls with case studies so that the reader is capable of performing the valuations on his own and repeat the theory in the exercises and case studies. The book is structured in five parts: In the first part, the introduction, we discuss the role of the players in the life sciences industry and their p- ticular interests. We describe why valuation is important to them, where they need it, and the current problems to it. The second part deals with the input parameters required for valuation in life sciences, i.e. success rates, costs, peak sales, and timelines.

The constant fights between the two are real reflections of daily lives. However just like in real (human) life, fights are a vital spice of life that do not also last forever. To Stacey, "Life is not a bed of hatred. You grow better when you fight to spread love and have fun in a child's way".
