I get invited in at the moments of maximum commercial leverage.
I work with private equity, venture capital, and private companies at the defining moments of their enterprise — in life sciences, pharma, and healthcare.

Joe Kleine
Founder & Principal
I have spent three decades running commercial organizations in life sciences and healthcare. I know what it takes to build a team, close a deal, fix what's broken, take companies public, and turn companies around.
That's what I bring to every engagement and every boardroom.
Discreet by nature and selective by design.

Selected Experience
Track Record
Took two companies the full journey to public markets — from growth strategy to the opening bell.
Full turnaround of an unprofitable company into the fastest-growing in its industry.
Led what was at the time the largest brand in the pharmaceutical industry.
Over a billion dollars in pharma and healthcare services negotiated — from both sides of the table.
Advised a startup acquired by a leading global provider of analytics and clinical research services to life sciences.
Services
For PE and VC-backed companies that need an independent and experienced operator in the boardroom.
I have successfully navigated this twice and know what's needed to avoid unpleasant last minute surprises when time and timing is unforgiving.
For companies that need to move from underperformance to category leadership. An objective and experienced leader is sometimes what is necessary.
Hiring, training, and scaling high-performance commercial teams from scratch; or upleveling one that has outgrown its current leadership.
