What You’ll Learn

Value a Pre-Revenue Biotech
Want to value a clinical-stage, pre-revenue biotech? An ordinary discounted cash flow analysis won’t cut it. Instead, you need to build a long-range sum-of-the-parts valuation.

This advanced virtual “Power Session” walks participants through the step-by-step process of valuing a biotech company

Taught by Experienced Professionals
This is NOT an academic exercise. It is taught by a healthcare-focused investment banking professional who understands how SOTP valuation is done on the job.
