SUMMARY:BioArbor | Fueling Innovation: A Founder’s Guide to Life Sciences Debt Financing
DESCRIPTION:Fueling Innovation: A Founder’s Guide to\nLife Sciences Debt Financing\nWed.\, April 8\, 2026 | 5:00-7:00 PM | Ann Arbor \nAgenda: Networking–5:00-6:00 PM; Program–6:00-7:00 PM \nEvery equity round costs founders’ ownership. But what if there were other ways to fund growth? Debt financing has quietly become a powerful tool for life sciences companies – from venture debt to equipment financing and cash-flow lending. When used strategically\, these instruments can extend runway\, fund critical infrastructure\, and preserve founder control. Experts will explain how debt financing really works in the life sciences sector – when founders should start thinking about debt\, how lenders evaluate companies\, and the most common use cases – from purchasing lab equipment to bridging the gap between equity rounds. The session will also highlight examples of debt deals and the lessons founders can learn from them.
