Learning together

Collaborative learning

The BioBusiness Masterclass is built around collaborative learning. Throughout the program, participants learn from experts, founders, business developers and one other through different learning formats. 

Instead of remaining in one fixed group, you will work with different people throughout the program, gaining new perspectives, expanding your network and challenging your own assumptions.

How you’ll learn together

Multiple learning formats ensure you benefit from diverse perpectives and build meaningful connections across the entire cohort.

Teams 

You’ll be part of a small multidisciplinary team of 3–4 founders and life science professionals. Together, you’ll discuss homework, share feedback and support each other’s growth.

Intervision coaching

The intervision groups consist of 3-5 participants which differ from the ‘learning teams’. This gives you space to reflect, share experiences and learn from different peers.  

Rotating workshops

Workshop sessions regularly take place in smaller groups or pairs, allowing you to collaborate with nearly every participant throughout the programme.

Expert coaching

Receive personal feedback of  40+ entrepreneurs, investors and industry experts and learn from the questions and experience of other participants.
