Flot.bio x Philip Hemme

We’re live from Oslo 🇳🇴 to catch up with Agnete Fredriksen, co-founder and CBO of Nykode (ex-Vaccibody). In this episode, we chat about being one of the leading women in bio in Europe, the Nordics, and immunotherapies. 💎 ABOUT THE SPEAKER Agnete founded the immunotherapy company Nykode in 2006 which is now worth around $500M. For her PhD she designed and developed the first Vaccibody vaccine molecules, improving the outlook for cancer patients. I’ve known Agnete for many years and I like her sharpness while having this Scandinavian humility. 📜 TRANSCRIPT Read the full transcript here: https://tinyurl.com/yk364wes 🔗 FOLLOW US - Don't miss an episode by signing up for our monthly newsletter: http://eepurl.com/h_fnmH - LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/flot-bio/ - X (Twitter) https://twitter.com/FlotBio
