What We Do
Regulatory Roadmap
Deep Science biotech startups have long product life cycles and have to cross several regulatory hurdles. With its inhouse expertise combined with extensive networks, Impres helps the startups clear the hurdle in the most efficient way possible.
Go To Market
Go to market strategy is the most crucial component of any business and much more so for biotech startups. Our ecosystem access includes one of the largest pan India supply chain systems as well as several international partners
Funding
Funding is a very important piece in this puzzle and we understand that. Beyond providing seed capital, Impres has an extensive network of family owned offices and global VC funds which can be leveraged for scale.
Co-creation
We work through an iterative process of co-creation with the founders to help them create a scalable, sustainable business model for their company
Accelerate Globally
Technologies developed by deep science biotech startups generally address a global market. With extensive connects in USA, Europe, Japan and Singapore, Impres makes the prospect of addressing a global market a real possibility.
Indian Launch Pad
Impres' also acts as a "Launch Pad" for global biotech companies which want to access Indian markets. As a first step, Impres along with its partners is building a physical biotech ecosystem which will act as a "Step up Incubator" for such global companies.
