Technology transfer

So

one of the key areas we've in other episodes discussed this extensively is during tech transfer.

So between researchers and process engineers, and in particular, understanding what is going on here, what is this process? I'm curious from your vantage point, is that kind of handoff one of these key areas? Are there others where you see this friction point in particular?

Yeah, no, this immediately reminds me of, so we had a startup company a few years ago on Therapeutics, raised $40 million plus, and we were doing our tech transfer to a CDMO.

And they came back and said, all right, this is going to be, you know, a 12 to 18 month process.

And, you know, our business co-founder, who was from sort of software and had done very well in software, came back and said, no, this needs to be two months.

So, you know, I'm not saying that this is not possible because, you know, I don't want to try harder, but literally the timing is not going to work out.

So, no.
