Hi all, I'm an experienced life science patent attorney with an advanced degree in biochemistry with about 12 years of patent prosecution and patent litigation experience (including at least half with top-tier NYC firms). Recently, I have been contemplating a career path switch to go in-house at a private equity or venture capital firm focusing on pharmaceutical and biotech companies. I have no business or finance experience, but I am hoping there is a place for an experienced J.D. to evaluate patent portfolios and litigation risks for valuating companies. As anyone ever heard of a patent attorney doing this? And, if so, what tips/advice would you have? Thanks.
