Managing Director
PIVINA Consulting

The biotechnology and pharmaceutical industry is confronting significant short-term and long-term challenges. One of which is the ever increasing financial pressures placed on them through governmental and provincial processes both in Canada and abroad.  These pose quickly evolving challenges; however, the overriding issue remains the need for effective market access strategies to gain better and faster commercialization.  This seminar focuses on health economic, reimbursement and pricing policies implemented by governments and discussion of best practices adopted by companies with a proven track record in gaining patient access to their products.

The art of negotiation touches every aspect of our lives -- we routinely negotiate with our spouses, our children, our landlord, our employer, and so on. It is equally important in business -- we negotiate with our customers, our suppliers and our investors.

Case studies focus on issues situations most entrepreneurs will face: research projects, starting a business venture, obtaining investors and licensing a product or invention.

Within universities and research institutions there are no shortage of good ideas; but not all of those ideas make commercial sense.  In this lecture, we explore what makes a technology worthwhile commercializing.  We also touch on some of the lessons we can take from the university setting and apply to any start-up technology.

        <media:title>Business development and entrepreneurship basics </media:title>
        <media:credit>webgoddesscathy</media:credit>
        <media:description type="plain">Addressing some of the early questions that entrepreneurs must ask themselves before beginning on their journey: 

* What are your goals for your enterprise?  (Business, nonprofit, social enterprise) 
* Will your business be focussed on profit? Social benefit? Will it be a consulting practice? A service company? A product company? 
*  What are the different requirements and resources necessary for your selected enterprise model?      
*  What type of financing should you target: equity, debt, grant funding or a combination of all three?

This is the lecture that establishes the framework for the rest of the course and gets entrepreneurs on their way!
