"If you want an investor you can navigate with, it's important to find out if you get along, even in difficult times. To get there, you need to understand the investor's expertise and preferred role. And most importantly, do you have the same long-term goal?" Pekka Simula, Partner at our Life Science Fund, recently spoke at The Life Science Cluster's 5th Norwegian Life Science Investor Partnering Day at Oslo Science Park and shared his tips on how to find a perfect investor match: 1. Even the best investor in the world is not a master in everything. 2. The best investors know what they know (and typically don’t invest beyond it). 3. Find an investor that complements your team's expertise; do your due diligence on them, while they do their DD on you!
