Description

In this episode of From the Lab to the Web, I sit down with Philipp Baaske, founder and CEO of Nanotemper Technologies and Vice President for Entrepreneurship at LMU Munich.

Philipp shares how he went from being a sceptical scientist to one of the most followed biotech founders on LinkedIn. He explains why storytelling is not marketing fluff, but a powerful way to make complex science understandable and relatable.

We discussed:

  • How storytelling helped him grow Nanotemper and attract talent

  • Why simplifying your science doesn’t make you less credible

  • How to stay authentic without oversharing

  • Using ChatGPT as a sparring partner, not a ghostwriter

  • What every young biotech founder should know before posting online

A candid, practical conversation about science communication, leadership, and visibility in the life sciences world.
