Entrepreneurship in the Life Sciences: Bart Van Acker

Visionary entrepreneur Bart Van Acker founded pharma and biotech knowledge hub and consultancy company QbD as a one-man venture in 2011. A decade later, QbD boasts almost 400 employees with a presence in 7 countries across two continents. Bart is one of those forward thinkers and serial entrepreneurs that never falter in their ambition, and his business enthusiasm is infectious.
In the pilot episode of our new podcast, Science Boosters, Bart shares his impressive rise to the top in a conversation with Filip Heitbrink, CEO of Scilife; from bioengineer to Flemish Young Entrepreneur of 2019, to board director, to co-founding and investing into multiple companies in the life sciences space and spurring the stellar growth curve of QbD. He’s eager to help other startup entrepreneurs in the sector, and we’re thrilled to listen to his guidance and personal experiences on Science Boosters.
