友人であり、仕事仲間であった上場ベンチャー企業の元同僚執行役が、CEOとしてバイオベンチャーを立ち上げました。そのガッツに賛辞を贈りたいと思います。
私もベンチャーの世界に生きていますが、自分の会社を立ち上げる決意は簡単に出来るものではありません。自分が信じる技術にどれほど没頭できるかの度合い・熱量が最大の決定要素ですが、資金の目処や仲間の存在なども大事なファクターとなります。
今更起業？と言われそうな年齢ですが、10歳若い友人を見習って、チャンスを窺いたいと思っています。海外旅行でゆっくり美食をしたい気持ちを抑えながら。
Founding a bio-venture
A former colleague, as executive officer of a listed venture company in Japan, and a friend of mine, has just established a bio-venture company as CEO. I would like to give a big compliment to his guts.
As I live in a venture world as a professional, the decision to start my own company has never been easy. The most deciding factor is your enthusiasm that you can immerse yourself in a certain technology you believe in. But at the same time the prospect of funding and the presence of friends who support you are also important
I’m in the ages anecdotally referred as “too old” for starting a bio-venture but I’d like to emulate this 10-year younger friend and keep looking for opportunities aggressively.
