The Value of the Right Partner

Jun 12, 2015

James Sabry, M.D., Ph.D.

Senior Vice President and Global Head of Genentech Partnering


It’s the most important decision you’ll make for your company. You’ve invested years of effort, weathered setbacks, and celebrated breakthroughs. Now it is time to entrust your cutting edge science to a partner who will try to turn your idea into a medicine. But how do you make sure you’re choosing the right partner?

I've served as CEO of several biotech companies and have seen what leads to success not just in the short-term but also for the long haul. There are really two considerations to think about: science and economics.

The most important—and often overlooked—economic factor is value creation. Biotech companies need a partner with a proven track record of developing an investigational medicine, manufacturing it, and making it available to the people who need it. That’s the key to sustainable success.

To learn more about my perspective on partnerships and how we create value, check out the video below.
