Why is it important for you to be at Swiss Nordic Bio and other similar conferences?
– This type of well-organized meetings serves as efficient platforms for companies like ours that aim to meet institutional investors and, most importantly, representatives of the global life science industry. We are now starting to build our network in this regard.
What did you focus on in your presentation of Chordate Medical and the Ozilia treatment?
– Primarily that we have a development project that has been de-risked in several steps. We are in the early commercial phase, entirely focused on our proven drug-free alternative for the preventive treatment of chronic migraines.
What type of players did you mostly engage with during the event?
– My focus was on scouts from global companies active in the migraine field, and on various types of investors.
What questions typically arise regarding the company and the Ozilia treatment, and how do you address these questions?
– It often revolves around how our medtech treatment compares to pharmaceuticals and how it is received by actual customers. We have a strong support from our latest study, PM007, which forms the basis of how we present our arguments.
