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.
