Synopsis:

Biotechnology inventions, products, and resource needs are changing paradigms in healthcare, agriculture, and industrial processes. Because of the growing opportunity and spreading influence of biotechnology, business professionals in many fields find themselves challenged to understand the biotechnology industry. The maturity of enabling technologies, availability of eager capital, and market demand, also motivate scientists to commercialize their discoveries.

Building Biotechnology enables business professionals and entrepreneurial scientists to understand the biotechnology industry, its drivers, opportunities and strategies for commercial success:

- Fund and assemble a company
- Manage research & development, alliances, and funding
- Understand the legal, regulatory, political, commercial, and scientific factors influencing biotechnology
- Invest intelligently in biotechnology stocks
- Cultivate a career in biotechnology, with or without a Ph.D. or MBA

Informative, clear, and highly accessible, Building Biotechnology should be required reading for anyone looking to capitalize on the expanding influence of biotechnology.
