Through AstraZeneca Exchange, mentors from AstraZeneca support Nordic entrepreneurs and start-ups to speed up innovations that benefit patients.
By sharing expertise, AstraZeneca help to move start-ups towards sustainable and successful growth.
The setup is based on arranged non confidential, single advisory sessions on strategic questions in the early start-up journey to help entrepreneurial ideas grow.
When the life science sector grows, we all grow, and patients benefit.
