They face significant pressures and challenges to navigate a profitable course to innovation and market delivery.

Hear answers to the questions such as: • What internal organizational forces currently impact your ability to fund innovation? • How can you build in risk and navigate through the uncertainties of product innovation and planning? • What are the common pitfalls made by life science managers and investors, and how can you learn to avoid them? • How can you stay on budget while building in contingencies?
