TD Cowen analysts Yaron Werber and Ritu Baral speak with Praveen Tipirneni to discuss his non-traditional path to becoming a biotech CEO, the Morphic journey, couch surfing in Kendall Square, his biggest prank in college, and the most unexpected learning in his career. Tipirneni's advice to first-time biotech CEOs is to adopt a healthy dose of conservatism and build in an ample safety margin to cushion against unexpected technical and market challenges. He also emphasizes the importance of personal relationships in the biotech industry and notes that the key to courting pharma is to make them feel that your company is a better and more nimble version of themselves.
