I am a consultant with proven skills in deal brokering,

marketing, strategic planning, finance, business development & acquisitions.  

With over 35 years experience in the healthcare sector I have spent the

past 20 years as a freelance licensing & business development  consultant.  I have worked with over 40 clients including major global and European companies, biotechs, start-ups and university spin-outs and have been a director of a number of UK-based pharma companies. I am a skilled negotiator and have successfully concluded many inward and outward licensing agreements and collaborative ventures involving both drugs and delivery systems. I also provide licensing training  -as the expert trainer for The Pharmaceutical Out-licensing Course at C.E.L.forpharma and by running in-house courses. I am author of the best-selling " Scrip’s Practical Guide to Pharmaceutical Licensing” and in recent years have also been active in encouraging entrepreneurship in the engineering sector.
