Software is everywhere in biotech companies

The ability to conduct science effectively and efficiently is mission critical to a biotech and life sciences companies. Good software accelerates this — it enables companies to iterate faster, explore bigger questions, reproduce findings and be more confident in their results. Software also plays a critical role in ensuring your company's IP is understandable.

Unfortunately, many founders don't focus on embedding good software practices early enough. By the time they get around to fixing this, their systems are difficult to test and scale, they're at an increased risk of data leaks, their progress in going to market is delayed, and their IP is difficult to sell.

We deliver workshops to biotech founders through bio-focused funds and incubators that cover:

Why good software engineering is critical

What the most important practices are

How to measure how well your company is doing

How to recruit software engineers with the right skills

How to create a culture that embeds these practices
