 Research Meets Industry: How to Position Your Profile for Non-Academic Careers

You’re not alone and more importantly, you’re not wrong to feel that way. The problem isn’t your profile. It’s how it’s being framed.

YOUR SPEAKER 

Dr. Oliver Gruenvogel brings a perspective few can offer: he’s been on both sides of the table. A trained Life Scientist with a PhD in Molecular Virology, Oliver published peer-reviewed research at the Universities of Ulm and Heidelberg before making a deliberate leap into industry. He went on to become a management consultant at BCG, served as Chief of Staff and VP Partnerships at an AI technology startup in the pharma and biotech space, and now works as a freelance consultant advising Life Science and Biotech companies on strategy and digital transformation. He knows what academic researchers bring to industry, and he knows exactly how to make that value visible to the people making hiring decisions.
