Chris Marsh, our CEO, appeared on a panel today at the CFO seminar series for the Oregon Biosciences Association. The purpose was to share learning on how to create a successful path for Mergers and Acquisition. Essentially, Chris's message was to "start with the end in mind". The focus is to build strong value for the company through the product (and protected IP), market and organizational leadership. In sum, "good companies are bought, not sold" said Chris. In addtion to Chris, the panel included Michael Phillipps, Raymond Cheung and Daniel O'Leary.
