Funding's double-edged sword for company culture with Martin Stenfeldt

In the first episode of Beyond the Purpose, hosts James Cox and Jay Webster sit down with Martin Stenfeldt, CEO at UNEEG Medical, who brings deep experience working with scale-up organisations across life sciences.
The conversation centres on leadership at the moments that matter most: Martin's eight leadership archetypes, why commercialisation is so often approached the wrong way, and what he calls the funding trap: no traction, no future.
Martin's new book, Scaling Life Sciences, expands on many of the themes covered in this episode and is available now at scalinglifesciences.com.
It's a thoughtful, challenging conversation that sets the tone for what this podcast is about: understanding what drives exceptional people to build, lead and scale life sciences companies, and what others can learn from them.
