Business Development

OBN’s membership, events and consultancy activity makes us an effective connector within the UK’s life sciences sector.

We can focus this experience on helping businesses and organisations build their profiles and sector connectivity.

Recent examples include working with a university to increase its industry engagement, helping a regulatory consultancy expand its network and providing visibility to an organisation not well known in the UK.

For more information on this offering please contact Philip Simister, Head of Science & Entrepreneur Advocate at OBN.
