Martin Stocks, CEO of Iceni Glycoscience, discusses how preparedness for the pandemic relies on leveraging the technologies and insights of innovative startups.
I was privileged to receive an invitation to attend the Coalition for Epidemic Preparedness Innovations (CEPI) Summit earlier this month.
CEPI – which has been largely founded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and Wellcome Trust - has already proved its value many times over during the course of the Covid-19 pandemic, in terms of coordinating the vaccine rollout and championing vaccine-sharing with poorer nations.
