Events Specialist, New Opportunities

The Company:

Curie.Bio is a founder-focused, seed-stage venture firm combined with an industry-grade therapeutics accelerator focused on one thing: helping entrepreneurial founders launch viable therapeutics companies. Curie.Bio does this by giving founders access to a team of the world’s best drug hunters and drug makers, seed capital, and best-of-breed services - everything a founder needs to get from concept to a compelling dataset that enables an awesome Series A financing and more. In a nutshell, we want founders focused on their area of expertise and creativity, while we help make the rest happen smoothly.

We manage two funds: the Seed Fund and the Breakout Fund. The Seed Fund focuses on advancing therapies through preclinical milestones, such as achieving in vivo proof-of-concept or selecting a development candidate. The Breakout Fund focuses on advancing medicines through clinical trials to generate impactful human activity data.

As an employee joining us on this mission, you will see first hand what it takes to successfully bring a company from concept at the seed stage to compelling wet-lab derived POC data with an industry-grade progressible drug (candidate) that enables a Series A financing and beyond. You will work alongside the world’s best drug hunters and industry veterans whose experience spans all facets of drug discovery and preclinical drug development - from disease biology to medicinal chemistry, to recruiting, to business development, and more.
