It\u2019s what allows bold ideas to grow into impactful innovations. But what happens when that climate starts to falter? As part of her internship at hollandbio, completed as the final step of her MSc in Science and Business Management at Utrecht University, hollandbio\u2019s Hanna set out to explore just that. Through interviews with biotech entrepreneurs and sector experts, she mapped the practical challenges biotech companies face in the Netherlands and uncovered the structural factors that drive them to look abroad. She found that, despite a solid scientific foundation, the Dutch biotech ecosystem is held back by persistent hurdles in three key areas: valorization, financing and regulation.
