We spend a lot of time talking with our guests about building biotech companies. That’s true of this episode too, but today we’re taking a step further with John Leonard, M.D., longtime CEO at Intellia Therapeutics. In addition to how he’s built late-clinical stage Intellia, Dr. Leonard shares the foundational elements of a biotech community, particularly around rapidly-advancing technologies such as CRISPR,  and what biotech ecosystems offer emerging biotechs in terms of resources, intellectual property, and support. Turns out that despite his proximity, Boston isn’t the prerequisite it used to be. This is an instructive conversation with an industry vet who’s happy to share the wealth of his knowledge.
