Somewhere Else, Netherlands-headquartered BGV-- focused on early-stage backing for International biopharmas-- also increased its largest fund to date after it arrested 140 million europeans in July 2023." When the general public markets as well as the macro setting are actually tougher, that is actually actually when biotech venture capital-led innovation is actually very most respected," Francesco De Rubertis, co-founder as well as companion at Greater london investment firm Medicxi, told Fierce Biotech final October.
