The life science industry is in need of talented cross-functional leaders
Developing a new life science product – medicine, raw material or diagnostic marker produced with biotechnology — and then successfully introducing it to the market is a complex process. Scientists and Engineers focus on finding suitable substances to develop efficient biotechnological production methods. Business experts and lawyers assess the economic viability of the product, supervise the licensing process and analyse the market. Life science managers understand production conditions and processes involved, are familiar with the licensing requirements and have the necessary business expertise.
We partner with leading, global applied companies to equip you with both the life science academic and practical work-based experience, such as Bayer, Pfizer, Biotronik, Capgemini, IGES Institute, TissUse and Thermo Fisher.
