The Science of Success: Transforming Scientific Concepts into Marketable Products with Stacy Frye, co-founder and CCO of Stimulus Bio

In this episode, I had an engaging conversation with Stacie Frye, co-founder and Chief Commercial Officer of StimulusBio, a life sciences commercialization and venture studio for biotech startups. We discussed how StimulusBio aids startups in operational and commercialization aspects, leveraging Stacie's unique journey across marketing, chemical engineering, and her experience with successful biotech exits. Experience from previous startups profoundly informs StimulusBio’s approach to helping startups transition from incubation to market. We explored the critical stages of startup growth, emphasizing the importance of marketing, storytelling, team building, and experience-based advice. Stacie also shared her insights into the emerging trends in the biotech industry, particularly in Houston's growing biotech ecosystem, and the importance of balancing innovation with practical business needs.
