Board Advisory

How We Help

Building a Board for success.

A diverse board of independent directors is critical to driving businesses forward. Our deep understanding of which board members are best suited for companies at different stages of growth, combined with access to a broad pool of exceptional candidates, makes us uniquely qualified to advise a wide range of Life Sciences companies in their search for world-class board talent.

Not all Boards are created equal.

Building high-value boards for Pre-Series A and Series A companies presents challenges that clinical and commercial stage companies don’t often face. Representing these under-the-radar clients requires not only a trusted network of leaders who will engage with us, but also comprehensive knowledge of the organization’s business and science to serve as a seamless extension of our clients.

Sharing Our Expertise.

Stevenson partners with and advises several Life Sciences associations and organizations and has been invited to speak as subject matter experts on building effective boards.
