The second episode of NAPPA Healthcare & Biopharma Insights turns from policy to deal-making. Buyers and investors rarely lack interest — what they lack is conviction that an asset fits their disease priorities, patient populations, evidence expectations, and development timelines. This session is about closing that gap before you walk into the room.

Dr. Joy Wang (PhD, MBA), NAPPA Strategic Advisor, draws on more than twenty years of senior portfolio-strategy leadership at Novartis/Sandoz, Eli Lilly, Baxter, and Dendreon — spanning neuroscience, oncology, and cell & gene therapy — to lay out the decision frameworks acquirers and financiers actually use, and how to pressure-test an asset against them.

The session is open to NAPPA members, partners, and qualified industry guests. Seats are limited — register below to receive Zoom join details.
