## Resource

In this episode of the podcast we are joined by Michal Preminger, Board Member at MassBio, who shares her remarkable journey spanning across academia, biotech, and global healthcare innovation. It all began with a deep responsibility to make an impact in the world, which led her into the field of healthcare. But she soon discovered that what kept her motivated wasn’t the end goal, but the process of developing and translating scientific ideas into real products and companies. Michal explains how her mindset of leaving a legacy has shaped her career decisions, and she offers practical advice for early stage scientific founders on how to find the right mentor and begin building their ideas. The conversation covers the many resources available to entrepreneurs through academic institutions and by organizations like MassBio and the Kendall Square Association.
