Founders in Focus: A Roundtable on Biotech Innovation and Leadership

​Innovation begins where vision meets execution.

​Join the Yale Graduate Consulting Club for an exclusive conversation with Norma Padron (VP Investment Banking at J.P. Morgan), Timothy Siegert (co-Founder and COO of Allyx Therapeutics), Ranjit Bindra (Professor at Yale School of Medicine and serial entrepreneur), and Sam Samdani (McKinsey & Co, Founder of BQ Alpha Inc.), a distinguished panel of leaders at the forefront of biotechnology and venture creation.

​This roundtable, sponsored by JPM, brings together founders, investors, and strategists to explore how groundbreaking ideas evolve into transformative companies. Through candid dialogue, our speakers will share their journeys and what inspired them to build, how they navigated risk, and what defines leadership in an era of rapid scientific and technological change.

​Discussion themes include: Translating research into scalable ventures, lessons from company founding and early-stage growth, innovation strategy at the intersection of science and business, and the future of biotech entrepreneurship.

​A networking reception with snacks and refreshments will follow the discussion, offering guests an opportunity to continue the conversation and connect with the speakers.
