#169 Mark Goldstone: Pharmacist, Copywriter, Investor - a podcast by Matthew Thompson: storyteller from Belfast, Northern Ireland

from 2020-10-26T04:00

:: ::

Mark Goldstone has worked for more than 25 years in the healthcare/life sciences industry.
 
 
He has a passion for technology, new “stuff” and all things creative.
 
 
Currently based in New York City, Mark spends his days working as the General Partner of Forepont Capital: a performance-focused venture capital firm that invests in early-stage life science companies.
 
 
Mark began his career as a pharmacist with the UK retail giant Boots before his love for writing led him to a new career in advertising as a copywriter — which has unexpectedly led him to where he is today. 

 
In today's conversation we talk about:
  • The value of learning how to write well
  • Why "Big-Pharma" isn't all bad
  • How to deal exponential change in a fast-paced world
  • And the successes/challenges faced along the way
