MCCALEB ASSOCIATES

• President

  • 2007 - Present

  President of firm providing biotechnology companies with management consulting services. My consulting practice was driven by my ability to provide start up companies with insights in the creation of their strategies for the commercialization of new products and technologies. I served as senior commercial advisor for a number of major biotechnology companies during their formative stages, including Gilead Sciences, Cephalon, and CV Therapeutics. I assisted in developing and implementing commercial programs, recruiting management teams, executing partnerships and raising capital. In addition to my work with major biotech companies, I have also been involved in early stage start ups including Prothena, Coulter Pharmaceuticals, Maret Pharmaceuticals , OmniScience and XTANT. My work with these earlier stage companies often involved serving as advisor to the Board of Directors for commercial and business planning. In addition, I often contributed to successful partnering, fundraising and/or merger. With Coulter Pharmaceuticals, the fundraising led to an IPO and a listing on NASDAQ. Show less
