Complete lecture from the Enterprise Tuesday session on 13th November 2012 chaired by CfEL Director, Dr Shai Vyakarnam with guest speaker Dr Darrin Disley, a serial entrepreneur who has been involved in the start-up and growth of ten high-tech business ventures.
In the second session of the 2012-2013 Enterprise Tuesday series, we have an opportunity to explore Mindsets and Motivations in the context of one of the fastest growing biotech firms in Europe. Horizon Discovery has been growing at 100%+ per annum by leveraging its strong IP, technology and customer base. It is a fast growing company rather than a lifestyle venture. What implication does this have on the management team and the business itself? How does a team form the skills to complement their vision to tackle the appropriateness of business models, regulatory challenges, the need for deep research pockets, sales to large corporates and other bureaucracies and more generally manage teams of very bright people?
