Abstract
It is a rare biotech company that can advance their product to commercialization without the help of a corporate partner or strategic alliance. A good partnership can tremendously accelerate product and market development. Not only is a strategic partner advantageous to a development-stage biotech company, but they are almost essential. In this chapter, we discuss strategic alliances, some of the pitfalls, and the value they can bring to the company.
