C-SUITE WORKSHOP: To Spend or Not to Spend: Investing for Success as an Emerging Company

Monday, January 13th | 2:45p - 3:45p

Hilton Union Square, Imperial Ballroom

Whether or not the plan is to partner, out-license or go it alone, executives at emerging companies need to understand – early on – what levels of spend are appropriate to prepare a product for a successful launch. Many clinical-stage companies find themselves either underfunding and subsequently underperforming in the market, or overfunding and incurring costs that do not add incremental value to commercial success. A strategic analysis of influential factors, such as level of development risk, corporate strategy, customer base characteristics and competitive landscape can help these companies determine whether to spend more or less, earlier or later in the process as they bring their product to market.

In this interactive session for C-level executives, participants will review the results of an industry survey on spend and through facilitated discussion take a deeper dive into the factors that influence commercial spend decisions and strategies for mitigating risk – and how those decisions in turn influence future commercial success.

Led by Naveen Murthy, Managing Director, Commercial Strategy & Planning
