To build a successful biotech company, you can’t do it alone. Curie.Bio provides you with instant access to the team and resources you need to get your drug to patients. Curie.Bio CSO Christoph Lengauer shares more about his background and Curie.Bio's unique approach to #FreeTheFounders in this recent episode of the Founders in Biotech podcast. Listen here and skip to 20:40 for the biotech-focused discussion. https://lnkd.in/eTJJYZWT
🌱 Free the Founders 🌱 Christoph Lengauer dives into what “Free the Founders” means here at Curie.Bio: it’s more than just a motto, it’s a guiding philosophy. Christoph explains that building a biotech company is always a team effort—no one can do it alone. “It takes a village,” he says, to support founders as they navigate the complex journey from breakthrough ideas to real-world medicines. That’s where Curie.Bio steps in. So, what does "freeing the founders" look like in action? It comes down to two main things: 1. Empowering founders to bring their vision to life: We’re here to make sure founders have the resources, support, and expertise needed to turn early ideas into effective, life-changing drugs. 2. Recognizing the risks founders take: Founders are putting everything on the line to innovate. We believe they deserve to be rewarded when those risks pay off and the world benefits from their work. Ultimately, “Free the Founders” is about making space for fresh thinkers, sparking new ideas, and helping them bring new treatments to patients. Curie Bio is all about supporting founders in creating the next wave of healthcare innovations.
