“My favourite stuff is the way Onno from Galagapos came back from disaster, time and time again.” 🎢 In this new short, Edwin Moses shares his opinion of what makes a great biotech entrepreneur. The key point: When disaster strikes, which ultimately will at least once, make sure you don’t lie down in defeat. Keep trying to find a way. That’s what leads to success. I really enjoyed listening to his experience on this and completely agree. As an entrepreneur, I have faced disasters a few times so I understand how hard it is to push through. But ultimately, persistence is worth it 💪 What do you think makes a great biotech entrepreneur?
“Have a glass of wine” I love that 😉 Which one do you recommend, Edwin Moses for the lightheaded ones 😅 Guy Bolland could you advise? 🍷
Resilience and persistance combined with mental agility
Well said and relevant for all people facing downturn and plans that aren't working out - take a step back regroup and figure out a way forward . Thanks for sharing 🍷
Thanks — always great to hear from Edwin
Great perspective!

2moPhilip Hemme that is through listening this podcast and Edwin Moses sharing his passion for biotech entrepreneurship that I became a regular listener. My key takeaways ✅failures will happen. Biotech by nature needs to have more appetite towards risk taking ✅ it is ok to fail but it is not ok to not reflect and learn from past mistakes ✅ resilience yes but clear strategic vision coupled with resilience is much better ✅ biotech is like a roller coaster - when you embark on it there is no escaping so embrace the speed, the challenges, and by moment the chaos to go further for patients
