Do you have biotech CFO experience?
Absolutely.

We understand burn rate management, milestone financing, R&D accounting, and the unique financial dynamics of biotech.
Boston stands as one of America's premier innovation centers, with global leadership in biotech and life sciences combined with world-class universities that drive research and company formation. The concentration of venture capital, specialized talent, and cutting-edge science makes Boston uniquely positioned for companies at the frontier of healthcare and technology.
Our fractional CFO services in Boston serve the diverse companies that make up the region's economy: biotech companies navigating the path from research to commercialization, digital health startups leveraging Boston's healthcare ecosystem, enterprise software companies serving the region's corporate base, and the professional services firms that support this innovation economy.
Boston's business culture is shaped by its academic institutions and the rigor they bring to intellectual endeavors. Analysis matters, credentials carry weight, and substantive expertise is valued over style.

Why Choose a Boston-Based Fractional CFO?
Boston's business environment has distinctive characteristics that affect company operations. Understanding these dynamics is essential for effective financial leadership.
The life sciences ecosystem has unique financial characteristics. Biotech companies typically burn cash for years before generating revenue, require specialized accounting for R&D and clinical trials, and navigate regulatory milestones that dramatically affect valuation. Financial leadership must understand these dynamics.
Massachusetts has a complex tax environment with various incentive programs for R&D and life sciences companies. Maximizing these benefits requires understanding the rules and proper documentation.
Boston's concentration of venture capital—particularly life sciences-focused VCs—creates funding opportunities but also competitive intensity. Companies compete for limited attention from top-tier investors. Strong financial preparation can differentiate your company in this competitive environment.
Our Boston relationships include life sciences-focused lenders, biotech-specialized venture firms, and the professional service providers who understand complex science-based businesses. When Boston companies need capital or specialized support, these relationships provide meaningful advantages.
