Taking an early proof of concept into preclinical and clinical development is a costly and complex process. But there are strategic ways to streamline the process and reduce risk and costs.

In this webinar, you'll hear directly from Nobel Laureate Sir Michael Houghton and experts from Applied Pharma, who bring decades of real-world success and deep scientific expertise.

The panel will explore practical strategies for building the robust body of evidence needed to advance your product without investing in a large, overhead-heavy internal team.

Together, they'll share how companies can benefit from:

  • Lean, integrated teams that offer end-to-end support without unnecessary overhead
  • Cost-effective development pathways enabled by Canada's collaborative, innovation-driven ecosystem
  • De-risked timelines supported by a stable regulatory environment and advanced infrastructure

Whether you're an emerging biotech or scaling toward key milestones, this session will highlight how lean derisking can help you move smarter, faster and with less risk.
