Download or read book Overcoming the Bottlenecks in Financing Young Biotech Companies written by Sascha Berger and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2008-06 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diploma Thesis from the year 2007 in the subject Business economics - Investment and Finance, grade: 1,3, Technical University of Munich (KfW Stiftungslehrstuhl f r Entrepreneurial Finance), 148 entries in the bibliography, language: English, abstract: In this book the question of how to overcome specific bottlenecks in financing young biotech companies was posed. The answer is manifold and includes the the usage of the multitude of financial options. Hence, first, the unique characteristics of the industry were described and specific financial bottlenecks were revealed. The eminence of a major bottleneck, typically in the seed-phase of a biotech venture, was taken as reason for further elaborations. I based these elaborations primarily upon an analysis of interviews. Several qualitative and predominantly personal interviews were conducted in the Munich biotech cluster, covering three decisive groups of respondents: biotech executives and founders, venture capital investors and external industry experts. The obtained extensive experiences were finally collected, clustered and compared. My key finding was that this bottleneck is mainly rooted in the fact that, when a young biotech firm leaves the academia, a big money provider (a Venture Capitalist or corporate partner) is often not yet willing to invest. A technological proof-of-concept is demanded by the latter, which is, however, not yet sufficiently provided by the former. Cluster structures might generally be helpful, but do not change this fundamental logic either. Based on this analysis, and taking into account the many other revealed points to improve, I came up with an exhaustive roadmap how to tackle the bottlenecks, covering all major endogenous and exogenous factors. This list of suggestions was supplemented with some basic thoughts on biotech finance strategies as also lastly a description of a comprehensive biotech finance cycle.

Download or read book From Breakthrough to Blockbuster written by Donald L. Drakeman and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2022 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Beginning in the 1970s, several scientific breakthroughs promised to transform the creation of new medicines. As investors sought to capitalize on these Nobel Prize-winning discoveries, the biotech industry grew to thousands of small companies around the world. Each sought to emulate what the major pharmaceutical companies had been doing for a century or more, but without the advantages of scale, scope, experience, and massive resources. How could a large collection of small companies, most with fewer than 50 employees, compete in one of the world's most breathtakingly expensive and highly regulated industries? This book shows how biotech companies have met the challenge by creating nearly 40% more of the most important treatments for unmet medical needs. Moreover, they have done so with much lower overall costs. The book focuses on both the companies themselves and the broader biotech ecosystem that supports them. Its portrait of the crucial roles played by academic research, venture capital, contract research organizations, the capital markets, and pharmaceutical companies shows how a supportive environment enabled the entrepreneurial biotech industry to create novel medicines with unprecedented efficiency. In doing so, it also offers insights for any industry seeking to innovate in uncertain and ambiguous conditions. Looking to the future, it concludes that biomedical research will continue to be most effective in the hands of a large group of small companies as long as national healthcare policies allow the rest of the ecosystem to continue to thrive"--
