ABOUT HUGH SPOTSWOOD

With over 18 years of experience in business development and licensing, I have played a pivotal role in negotiating and concluding strategic partnerships and licensing agreements with commercial, academic and government counterparties.In my previous roles at BioNTech, Sangamo Therapeutics and Merck Life Science I successfully negotiated and executed multiple deals that provided access to key technologies, or served to monetize intellectual property through strategic out-licensing. As a Certified Licensing Professional (CLP) and a PhD holder in chromatin and gene expression, I leverage my technical knowledge and business acumen to identify, evaluate, and secure opportunities that align with the vision and goals of the organizations I work for.
