BoB@JPM: Ron Cooper, enGene

We love to hear from our listeners. Send us a message.

On this week's episode of the Business of Biotech -- on location at the J.P. Morgan Healthcare Conference -- we're speaking with Ron Cooper, CEO and Board Member at enGene, to unpack how he scaled Albireo from a small research shop to a global commercial company, and why he’s now betting on nonviral gene therapy at enGene to help patients with non-muscle invasive bladder cancer keep their bladders. Cooper talks about the importance of keeping development, financing, and hiring in sync as biotech companies grow, his experiences surviving near-death cash deficits, the importance of investing early in CMC, and what to expect in 2026.
