This week on Careers in Discovery, I'm joined by Dr Peter Pack, an influential figure in the Biotech industry whose journey has taken him from Germany to the dynamic Biotech landscape of the UK, where he now operates as a strategic partner and advisor to Private Equity firms and startups.
In our conversation, Peter shared his diverse experience, including his time as a CEO for nearly 20 years and his current role mentoring young biotech teams. He offered insights into the differences between the Biotech industries in Germany and the UK, the importance of building strong networks, and his passion for supporting innovative startups.
Peter also reflected on his early inspirations in science, the development of groundbreaking technologies at Morphosys, and the valuable lessons he has learned about commercialization and strategic decision-making. He emphasized the importance of collaboration, learning from mistakes, and the critical role of supportive investors.
Join us as we explore Peter's fascinating career, his views on the future of biotech, and the key factors that contribute to successful leadership in this ever-evolving field.
