Hitchhiker’s Guide to Startup Success: Mastering the Art of the Perfect Pitch

Earlier this fall, we launched the first event in our seminar series, Hitchhiker’s Guide to Startup Success, which we are organizing together with Miltenyi Biotec. The inaugural session featured an inspiring workshop led by pitch expert and coach Malcolm Larri. The event gathered innovators and entrepreneurs in the Life Sciences sector, with a particular focus on Advanced Therapy Medicinal Products (ATMP)—a rapidly growing field with tremendous potential to revolutionize healthcare.

In today’s fast-paced world of innovation, where new drugs and therapies are being developed at an unprecedented rate, standing out has never been more crucial. As the Life Sciences industry continues to advance, the challenge is not only to create groundbreaking therapies but also to effectively communicate their value to investors, stakeholders, and potential collaborators.

“It does not matter how valuable your idea is if you cannot transfer that value from your mind to the mind of your audience. Pitching is an essential skill for everyone who wants to generate ideas, innovate products and services and even lead successful teams”. – Malcolm Larri.

A national resource for tomorrow’s treatments – Karolinska ATMP Center is now inaugurated

With a clear message of hope for the future and a powerful spirit of collaboration, the Karolinska ATMP Center in Flemingsberg was inaugurated at the end of August. The center is a collaboration between Karolinska Institutet and Karolinska University Hospital and will serve as a national resource for the production of advanced therapies (ATMPs), where research, clinical trials, and treatments work seamlessly together to deliver groundbreaking therapies to patients.

Meetings That Shape the Future: Flemingsberg Science at Almedalen

In June this year, the foundation took part in the annual Almedalen Week, the world’s largest democratic meeting place for everyone who wants to join the discussions on current societal issues. This year, we had a special focus on Life Science, an area and cluster that has long been a natural part of Flemingsberg, and which is now growing stronger than ever.

Meet us at NLSDays

In the south of Stockholm you’ll find Flemingsberg, home to a vibrant life science cluster that’s rapidly emerging as an attractive location for life science companies. Here, academia, business and society form a dynamic ecosystem, fueling innovation and growth. And with more companies establishing and collaborations further deepening, the opportunity to expand and invest have never been greater. This year, we are therefore participating in NLSDays in Gothenburg, where we will showcase Flemingsberg's unique strengths and invite more stakeholders to become part of our thriving life science environment.
