Francesco Bracotti 🇮🇹 Class of Insead 23J

Francesco started off his career on the race tracks going up to F3 (which helped him humiliate us mere Inseaders at Go Karting) 🏁 🏎️

He experienced a tough change in his life at 18 which led him to end the F1 dreams to pursue a career in healthcare, which he realised he was much more passionate about. He provides us with insights into the inner workings of Big Pharma, and makes the case for us to trust these companies to drive innovation within the industry.

Francesco had a lot of crazy experiences in his career: discovering molecules to administer drugs to our lungs (we geek out on mucus quite extensively together 😅), taking on the COVID portfolio during the crisis and being selected as Forbes under 30 (according to him he is just a consistently “lucky” guy).

Stay tuned until the end to elucidate his 2 truths and a 1 lie 😉

1 - He defeated Carlos Sainz 🏎️ 🏆

2 - He had a nervous breakdown 🙀

3 - He doesn’t drink alcohol, smoke or drink coffee 🙅 🥂 🚬  ☕
