The pandemic drastically altered the landscape for investment flowing into the Life Sciences. Not only was there more money going in, but the market needs changed too, with an unprecedented focus on scaling sectors like testing and vaccines. But what did this mean for sectors which were not on the Covid front line? What happened to the trends that were in train before the pandemic hit? And what have we learnt from this experience that we can deploy in the face of the next global challenge? In this episode of Invent: Life Sciences, we look at the past, present and future of investing in the sector, to explore the profound effects that the pandemic has had on it as a whole - and find that, when we pull together, amazing things can happen.
