EuroSciCon are delighted to announce that David Wallder, CEO of Wallder Consulting Ltd will be speaking at their How can I spin out my research and become a company? meeting on Friday, March 14, 2008 at the BioPark Hertfordshire

His talk will be entitled ‘From Bench to Boardroom: What it takes to turn Scientists into Successful CEOs’

More from David Wallder: ‘There was a time when it was rare to find a scientist in a senior executive post and even rarer to find one in the CEO’s position, but today many scientists aspire to roles beyond the laboratory. The challenge for these individuals is to identify strategies that will help them gain promotion. If you are aspiring to join the boardroom the first thing to understand is what characterizes a successful CEO’
