ZCC Consulting was instrumental in planning the early years of operations for several of our portfolio companies, including Komo Biosciences. Their team evaluated numerous laboratory spaces across the Boston area and developed detailed financial models covering lab infrastructure, scientific staffing, and operating expenses, providing a clear and realistic cost forecast from day one.
What truly set ZCC Consulting apart was their hands-on, execution-focused approach. They personally visited multiple laboratory sites in Massachusetts to ensure each option aligned with our budget, experimental requirements, and long-term scalability goals. In addition, they advised on the optimal scientific instrumentation for platform success and designed preclinical studies to generate proof-of-concept data—overseeing protocol development, CRO screening and contracting, data analysis, and the creation of high-quality investor-facing presentations.
ZCC Consulting also supported project planning by defining timelines and key milestones, enabling efficient resource allocation and strong alignment with our business objectives. Their professionalism, rigor, and strategic insight made them a highly trusted partner, and I would not hesitate to work with them again.
ZCC Consulting provided high-quality scientific and regulatory guidance that helped refine our clinical translation strategy in autoimmune diseases, including FDA-aligned study designs.
Their rigor and professionalism were evident throughout the engagement.
