What We Do
Fannin offers hands-on operational experience in early-stage life science development through its internship program, which includes tracks in Therapeutics and Medical Devices. Interns work closely with portfolio companies, learning about biomedical commercialization, due diligence, market analysis, product development, and regulatory requirements.
This program provides real-world experience in life-science product development, focusing on managing research and development activities, intellectual property, business development, regulatory affairs, and financing. Associates build networks in biotechnology and attend industry workshops and conferences.
