What does it take to shape a high-impact biotech investment portfolio - and do it under a medical charity mandate?
This week we sit down with Clare Terlouw, Head of LifeArc Ventures, whose 20+ year career spans investment banking, biotech company building, and leading venture teams focused on health innovation. With a unique perspective at the intersection of science, capital, and patient impact, Clare shares a candid and optimistic view of the evolving biotech landscape in the UK and beyond.
In this episode, Clare covers:
- LifeArc Ventures’ mission: how a medical charity is driving returns while staying true to a patient-first vision.
- Investing and scaling biotech: from early inflection points to Series B and beyond, what great companies get right.
- Biotech in the UK: challenges in the current funding environment, the talent surge, and why optimism still holds.
- Tech-enabled drug discovery: how AI, computational biology, and new business models are shaping investment priorities.
- Clare's leadership lens: her personal drive, how she evaluates opportunity, and the power of staying focused on patient outcomes.
