Endpoints 11

Endpoints News founder and editor John Carroll presents a selection of 11 of the most promising private startups in biotech. What do they all have in common?

Great people They all have standout executive crews and a stellar group of scientists to back them up on what they’re trying to do.

Great ideas At a unique moment in biotech history, we’re seeing some of the most ambitious efforts ever mounted in drug discovery and development. And here are a selection of companies that are all going big.

Substantial resources And by that I mean not just backers who can fund a major effort through to the final readout, but a brain trust of people who can help entrepreneurs build companies from the ground up. Not all these companies are likely to make it to the promised land, but whether they fall short or go the distance, we’ll definitely hear about it.
