This is Snickers. Snickers doesn't care what you think.

Most founders don’t think seriously about risk until something goes sideways. Investors do. If you’re building in life sciences, your broker shouldn’t just be a policy salesperson—they should be a strategic partner helping you protect value, manage burn, and show you run a disciplined company.

Women’s health founders and funders: if policy is not part of your strategy, you’re leaving impact and enterprise value on the table. Do you want a high-impact way to contribute? The photo shows my local women’s health advocates! womenshealthadvocates.org

Your insurance broker should be a strategic partner — not just a form-filler. Join me for a practical workshop on using smart risk management to protect valuation, manage burn, and signal investor-ready governance. Mar 10 | 9–10am PT 🔗 www.eventbrite.com/e/smart-risk... #LifeScience #Biotech

Today is #RareDiseaseDay! Each year, I take time to reflect on how rare diseases impact our communities. One fact I learned this year is that 72% of rare diseases are genetic. Please join me in supporting the 300 million people around the world who live with rare diseases!

Rare Disease is next week, and there are a variety of ways to participate. Head to the National Organization for Rare Disorders for a list of events. rarediseases.org/events/ #RareDisease #RareDiseaseDay #NORD

A great workshop is more than a session—it’s an opportunity to solve problems, spark new ideas, and build connections. When I lead a workshop, I aim to blend listening, collaboration, and practical takeaways. Let’s partner on a workshop that empowers your team and drives meaningful outcomes.

Life science companies often raise money by selling company shares to investors. This is known as dilutive funding. These kinds of investors carefully review the business before investing, looking for growth potential and a good match. krogersconsulting.com/uncategorize... 1/3
