Edward Richman to Speak at Pennsylvania Biotechnology Center
Edward Richman, President of Richman Chemical Inc. will give a special presentation on Tuesday, April 17th as part of the Regional Biotech Council's Business Development Series (www.ihvr.org/rbc/). The presentation, "Effective Outsourcing for Start Up Companies" will include a review of the myths and truths associated with outsourcing and important considerations to take when selecting an effective outsourcing partner. The realities today for emergent companies (EC's) are that funding and staff is quite limited. Resources by necessity are concentrated on developing the intellectual property that is needed for the next stage of funding. As a result, much of the development and scale up work must be done by others. Selecting and working effectively with the outsourcing community is critical for EC's. Because the choice of an outsourcing partner is so crucial to an EC's survival, Ed's company, Richman Chemical Inc. is working to help companies learn how to outsource effectively by choosing the right outsourcing partners. Considerations, contingencies and planning for custom manufacturing and product sourcing are discussed.
Mark your calendar now for Tuesday, April 17th, 4:00 - 6:00 pm. There is no cost to attend this event. The Pennsylvania Biotechnology Center is located in Doylestown, PA. Directions can be found by following this link: http://www.ihvr.org/rbc/location.htm.
