We’re pleased to announce that we are a partner of the brand-new QB3 Accelerator program, created by the California Institute for Quantitative Biosciences (QB3) to help life sciences companies become operationally efficient. We’ll be providing members of the QB3 Accelerator with finance and accounting services that range from getting their accounting functions up to serving as CFO and consulting on finance challenges.

Joining forces with QB3 was a no-brainer: we’ve been working in the life sciences sector since 1996 and understand what companies in this sector need at every stage of growth. QB3, formed in 2000, houses 62 companies in its incubator network and has helped 95 teams start their companies in the last 15 months. The QB3 Accelerator can make a huge impact by giving member companies access to opinion leaders, networking events, operational assistance and services from partners like RoseRyan.

“What we love about QB3 Accelerator is that it’s designed to help startups achieve operational efficiency quickly,” says RoseRyan cofounder and CEO Kathy Ryan. “That mission falls right in our wheelhouse. These companies don’t want to worry about accounting and finance—they need to focus on their mission.

“We know how important it is to do things right from the start—mistakes can turn out to be very expensive later on. And we understand how issues change as a company grows. QB3 Accelerator lets us tailor our services—we deliver just what clients need so they can relax and spend their time in the lab.”

QB3 Accelerator business partners have been recommended by life sciences startups. In addition to accounting and finance, the services they provide include IT, lab services, insurance, staffing and payroll and benefits. QB3 Accelerator launches officially Dec. 14. Currently, more than 30 startup companies are members.
