International Strategy Development Training

“Fit for Health 2.0” in collaboration with Medicon Valley Alliance,  ScanBalt Bioregion and the IPR-helpdesk is organizing an international strategy development training, with a focus on innovative business solutions and smart financing.

The training is tailored to senior executive representatives of high-tech / research intensive SMEs of all health-related sectors (incl. pharma, biotech, med-tech, therapeutics, diagnostics, e-health, high-end research services etc.) who see clear growth potential, and who have not completed their product/services development yet.

In particular, the training will focus on the following aspects and difficulties that executives usually face developing their technology, products and their organization:

- Writing and communicating the business plan. Understanding basic business strategy and implementing it with respect to eg "Freedom to Operate" (Morris S. Berrie, TTS Global Initiative – UK)

- Business models: traditional and evolving models. A brief look at various scenarios that can be adapted and applied to generate interest (Christian J. Suojanen, TTS Global Initiative – UK)

- Innovative Business Planning around Intellectual Property (IP) – with a specific focus on Life Science Companies (Sebastian Tegethoff, 24 IP Law Group – Germany)

- An introduction to the principles of valuation and negotiation with equity investors in life sciences, followed by a case study in which we will value a drug in development and discuss how to negotiate a fair licensing deal (Aitana Peire, Venture Valuation – Switzerland)

As this hands-on, interactive training is restricted to 50 participants you will be asked to provide some short information during registration.

Please note that the training is not open for consultants.
