HGF IP in Healthcare Virtual Conference 2021 - Lab bench to acquisition and a spin-out company: follow the client journey

Description

Dr Andy Chapman will talk through the story behind one of the major spinout exits of 2018. Ziylo limited was a spin-out from Bristol University that was acquired by Novo Nordisk in a deal that could ultimately exceed US$800m. The deal also resulted in the formation of a new spin-out company – Carbometrics Limited. Dr Andrew Wells will outline the important IP support and guidance that HGF provided to help Ziylo along the way.
