In the rapidly advancing realm of biotechnology and pharmaceuticals, life sciences real estate is more than bricks and mortar – it’s the enabler of innovation.

White papersUncovering the qualities that set compounders apart
Compounder companies (“compounders”) are those with highly visible and long-duration growth. Lindy’s Law explains an anti-ageing process for such companies — the longer they exist, the stronger they become to survive well into the future. This enables many to become industry leaders and dominant global players. We refer to these types of venerable companies as “marathon runners”. They form the bedrock of the returns we generate for our clients. It’s not just their age that sets these companies apart. It’s the combination of unique corporate culture and resilience that keeps them growing in good and bad times.
