Hi All, I am looking to make a career pivot. I have 4 years of bench experience at a big pharma and 4 years as a R&D program manager at a large biotech. I recently completed my MBA and am looking for any leads on transitioning into commercial (marketing, access, CI, new products planning). Any advice or connection would be appreciated. I’ve been struggling to make this transition and don’t want to be pigeon holed in r&d for my career.
