Who we are

We are a specialized accounting and finance advisory firm dedicated to supporting life sciences companies from early seed rounds through IPO. Our team includes experienced accounting professionals and industry experts who understand not only finance, but also the scientific, operational, and regulatory complexities of the life sciences sector. We partner closely with founders and CFOs to build a strong financial foundation, enable successful fundraising, and drive long-term business success. 

What we do

Outsourced Accounting

Life sciences companies operate in one of the most regulated, investor scrutinized industries. Accurate and GAAP compliant accounting is essential for fundraising, audits and grant reporting. Clean, well-structured books directly influence valuation, credibility, and the ability to close funding rounds. Our team ensures your financial foundation is strong, compliant, and audit ready.

Specialized Technical Accounting

Life sciences accounting is different from traditional industries. Clinical trial accruals, milestone and royalty agreements, licensing and collaboration revenue require deep technical accounting expertise and strong industry understanding. Accurate, industry informed accounting affects investor confidence, audit readiness, and company valuation. We provide technical accounting specifically tailored for the life sciences companies.

Fundraising Support

Investors expect clear financials, clean cap tables, and GAAP-compliant accounting. Fundraising delays often occur due to incorrect equity accounting, mis-booked financing instruments, or financial statements errors. We ensure your financials, cap table and disclosures are audit clean and fundraising ready, helping you close rounds faster and at stronger valuation.

R&D Tax Credits

R&D is the core of every life sciences company, and often its largest expense. R&D tax credits can significantly reduce tax liability, and for early-stage biotech companies, payroll offsets deliver immediate cash benefits. With our deep industry expertise, we assess scientific projects across the full R&D lifecycle to identify every possible qualifying activity and maximize your federal, state, and industry-specific tax credits. 

Strategic Finance Support

Biotech companies operate with high uncertainty, long development cycles, and heavy cash burn. Leadership needs forward-looking financial insight to make decisions around trial timelines, runway, staffing, and fundraising strategy. We provide strategic finance support that helps your team plan ahead and manage the financial future with clarity and confidence.

Company Formation

Early company formation decisions have long-lasting financial and tax impact. For life sciences startups, formation mistakes and negligence can jeopardize future fundraising and tax- saving eligibility. We assist founders to form their company,  establishing a compliant and tax-saving foundation from day one to minimize downstream risk and prevents costly rework during financing rounds.
