Variability, delays, manufacturing as an afterthought make #GCT challenging from an investment POV — need to rethink the ecosystem and drive efficiency, invest in tech innovation says Bob Nelson ARCH Venture Partners

We need to change the scale and scope of how #GCT is advancing from discovery to development — systematization critical. Can’t have thousands of one-off therapies say early-stage investors. Major mis-match between where things are now and what could be.
