The biotech industry is facing a critical juncture. Following the investment peak of 2021, the sector is now contending with stricter regulations, mounting drug pricing pressures, shrinking IPO opportunities, and a sharp decline in financing activity. Many firms are compelled to pivot towards survival strategies to sustain their operations and growth.

This report provides a roadmap for biotech leaders to navigate these challenges. Through an in-depth analysis of successful case studies and emerging trends, particularly from the Chinese biotech ecosystem, we explore how companies are overcoming capital constraints, seizing market opportunities, and securing profitable exits.

One of the strategies highlighted in this report is the adoption of NewCo structures. By forming new entities in strategic regions, biotech firms are expanding their global footprint, enhancing their operational agility, and attracting international investments. These models not only facilitate cross-border growth but also open pathways for successful IPOs and M&A deals.

From mergers and acquisitions (M&A) to royalty-based financing and strategic collaborations, "Thriving Amid Capital Winter" equips industry leaders with actionable insights to drive resilience and long-term success in a rapidly evolving market landscape.
