The community for life science founders

Building a start-up is no mean feat and the value of peer-to-peer support cannot be underestimated. So we’re building the BioEntrepreneur Club - a collaborative and supportive community exclusively for early-stage life science entrepreneurs.

About

Exclusively for entrepreneurs building in bio

Through our active community platform and regular events, we facilitate meaningful connections between life science entrepreneurs and provide unique opportunities for members to advance and develop their companies.

Community Platform

Once a quarter, all members are invited to an exclusive but informal meet up. Our approach is centred around creating a relaxed and supportive environment for members to get to know one another, discuss challenges and share advice. No professional services. No students. No investors. Just founders.

Investors and Publicity

Through our BioCapital Network, we provide BioEntrepreneur Club members with unparalleled access to the UK's largest network of life science investors. We regularly host investor office hours, sector-specific Investor-Founder Mixers, demo days and the opportunity to share a deck with the whole BioCapital Network.

We give members a platform to showcase their innovation through our Sector Insights and Startup Spotlights, expertly pulled together by our Science Writers and then shared to the SEC's international following of over 5,000 individuals including entrepreneurs, investors, and industry players.

Innovators Club

Once a year, we run a free 10-week network accelerator programme designed for pre-seed companies in the BioEntrepreneur Club. Alongside a series of expert-led workshops on essential start-up topics, the programme also includes 1-to-1 investor sessions, a bespoke published Startup Spotlight and the opportunity to pitch to the BioCapital Network.

Learn and Develop

We partner with experts across professional services, communications, leadership and beyond to provide you with access to learning resources and important connections for supporting your company’s growth. BioEntrepreneur Club members are invited to join bespoke online lunch and learn series and in-person workshops.

This past year members have enjoyed a three part lunch and learn series delivered by FTI Consulting on R&D tax credits, employment tax and strategic comms and have joined Koolen Consulting’s Leadership, Talent and Retention and Growth workshop.
