Cracking the code of biotech valuations

Beyond Biotech - the podcast from Labiotech

ambiom is a life science commercial-advisory business development company based in the Slovakian capital of Bratislava.

The company helps its corporate clients with their product strategy, in- and out-licensing efforts, including asset valuation (NPV, rNPV), M&A scouting, complex due diligence and dealmaking.

ambiom also provides input on regulatory matters, support in pricing and reimbursement decisions and communication with decision-making authorities. The company guides products from the beginning - the basic science - all the way to commercialization or spin-offs.

Our guest on the podcast this week is the founder and CEO of ambiom, Adam Marťák. We discuss the biotech scene in eastern Europe, the company, and look at some of the challenges facing biotech companies as they navigate the financial pathway alongside drug discovery, regulations, and commercialization.
