Business Development Services
Entrepreneurs are sometimes born, but more often they are made; good intuition is not always enough to create a company that can be competitive. In its role as facilitator, the TLS Foundation offers support not only to start-ups or companies that are already active in the Life Sciences field, but also to young people with an interesting idea in their head who need to focus better on a potential end market, evaluate and consolidate the starting assets, and outline the contents of the business plan. That’s where the business development services come into play.
