Licensing & Acquisition Opportunities

Large pharma and biotech companies are in an environment of increased M&A activity, with catalysts including a need to replace revenue from drugs losing patent protection, excess cash, and ineffective internal pipelines. The threat of a shift in pricing regulation adds more uncertainty to the landscape. Given this backdrop, there has never been more of a need to engage with an agnostic partner to provide objective third-party input to support your efforts.

inThought works with business development groups such as yours, providing idea generation and due diligence analyses. In addition to deep subject matter expertise in multiple therapeutic areas, many of our principals have a Wall Street background and are comfortable with providing quick, bespoke assessments of an indication, company, or specific program.
