I am an MD with more than 18 years of drug development experience. Would love to provide clinical development and scientific consulting to startups or investing companies as a side role. Does anyone has any thoughts on how to begin? I have never done it, but will like to explore that path.

I would start by signing up to be a KOL for an expert network or some other gig where u can be exposed to the questions/though process that investors/biotech management have. The time commitment isn’t huge but it should give u good exposure to understanding how professionals in the space evaluate investment opportunities from a medical/scientific perspective.

@ClearView H P1 could you share info about the new London office?

Multiple firms operating model is to have a core group of consultants and then a series of advisers who selectively participate in projects. It may be worth exploring firms like Alacrita, Axxelis, Vivactis.

I’m currently a tax accountant with 5 YOE. I want to move into a business analyst role I’ve applied for entry level positions (competition is wild) and willing to get certs. I have great hard and soft skills that should transfer pretty well. Any advice on getting the ball rolling? Should I get a mentor? I’ve seen a lot of layoffs too which kind of makes me wonder if it’s worth it.

This is my first job in a large corporate company, and I’m trying to gauge how long it normally takes to move from entry level to another internal position in the insurance industry.

I am a top performer, with great metrics, and I have some wonderful connections I’ve made who support me. I just can’t seem to move up. How long did it take you to move up? How many tries did it take?

Many are wondering what’s wrong with ClearView.

Maybe it’s time ClearView brought in a consulting firm to ease its org problems
