// ABOUT FREEDOM
Where Experience Shapes What's Next
Freedom Bioscience Partners works with founder-led businesses, PE-backed organizations, and investor groups at critical moments of growth and transition across the life science services ecosystem.
It's at these pivotal moments where clarity matters most. That's where we focus our work.
Grounded in more than 30-years of experience serving as an operator, advisor, and investor in pharma services, we’ve lived the realities of building and scaling science-forward businesses. We know where growth stalls, where valuation gets discounted, and where capital conversations go sideways.
We help leadership teams break through what’s holding them back – Helping them align strategy with market reality, connect them with the right capital, and position the business for what’s next.
Let’s work together.
Founder-Led, Future-Ready.

Our work reflects firsthand experience operating at the same inflection points our clients face — when growth accelerates, ownership shifts, and the consequences of decisions begin to compound.
We’ve been in the room for these transitions, helping leaders move with clarity when the stakes rise and the margin for error narrows. Along the way, we’ve built deep, trusted relationships across founders, strategics, and private equity and we use that network with precision and purpose.
Clients work with Freedom for clarity, judgment, and credibility — Especially when the decisions are complex and the margin for error is small.
