About this listen
In Part 1 of this two-episode conversation, Ray sits down with longtime partner and life-sciences attorney David Smith to unpack the earliest—and most misunderstood—moments in forming a biotech company.
They dive into choosing the right corporate structure, splitting founder equity, why timing matters, and how early financing tools like convertible notes and SAFEs really work.
It’s a clear, practical look at the decisions that quietly determine whether a life sciences startup ever gets off the ground.
It’s candid, practical, and full of the small details only 30 years of trenches-level experience can give you.
