Brendan Rousseau
I bring unique experience supporting biotech companies from clinical development through commercialization. I’ve worked across the full company lifecycle—from startup to winddown.
Far from any Biotech hub, living in Minnesota has presented me the unique opportunity to expand on my areas of expertise. I developed a deep financial and operational understanding of manufacturing drugs while at a global CDMO. While earning my MBA at the University of Minnesota, serving as a Medical Industry Fellow presented me the opportunity to consult on behalf of Private Equity investment opportunities in local Med Device companies.
As a consultant, I believe my drive to improve patient lives and bring new medical solutions to market is my greatest value—beyond my core financial expertise.
