Agenda Spotlight

This panel will discuss emerging options including private equity, venture debt, government initiatives, and strategic partnerships, examining how funding models have evolved, the varying expectations from different investors, and which funding approaches best suit companies at different development stages.

Venture debt provides biotech startups with non-dilutive capital to advance research while maintaining ownership. An expert panel will discuss how this financing tool supports innovation, strategies for funding critical milestones, approaches to balancing debt with equity, and key considerations for securing venture debt to gain competitive advantage in the biotech landscape.

Biotech companies must adapt to capital scarcity and compressed timelines.
