"We are known for being company creators. We continue to do what we know. Our strategy has evolved, but has remained consistent."
"If you treat patients, you save lives, ultimately this is going to be good for investors. We believe that by backing companies, whether early stage or later stage, that bring a product to patients — ultimately this translates into financial return."
“I joined Sofinnova Partners because first of all, they have a fantastic brand in Europe, but it's easy to see it is a very strong partnership. They're loyal to each other and everyone knows they treat entrepreneurs well.”
