iNOVA4Health Seminar by Alain Bernard: Biotech Startups Bringing Innovation to Market

"The story of a biotech startup bringing innovation to market"

On October 8th, iBET had the pleasure of welcoming Alain Bernard, founder and general manager of BAPC, a strategic biopharma consultancy, for an iNOVA4Health seminar on “The Story of a Biotech Startup Bringing Innovation to Market”.

With over 40 years of experience in bioprocess development and manufacturing, Dr. Bernard shared valuable insights on one key question: “How can biotech startups bring new products to market?”.

Starting with his personal motivations, Dr. Bernard recounted what first drew him to enter the field – his passion for improving patients’ lives through the development of innovative therapies.

Using several case studies, he then explored the unique challenges faced by biotech start-ups, from scientific and technical to management obstacles that significantly differ from those encountered by established pharmaceutical companies.

He also emphasized the importance of strategic decision-making, especially when balancing the costs and risks associated with bringing innovative products to market.

iBET extends its sincere thanks to Alain Bernard for such an insightful presentation and for offering a deeper understanding of the dynamic, and often complex, world of biotech startups.
