What We Do

From first hypothesis to funded product.

Every STEM startup faces a complex web of scientific, commercial, and financial challenges. We have particular depth in healthtech, medtech, and diagnostics. We bring together expertise that most firms cannot offer under one roof.

Fundraising & Financial Strategy

£12M+ raised across pre-seed to Series B. We bring institutional finance experience: from financial modelling and pitch materials to running investor processes and negotiating terms.

Scientific & Product Strategy

From scientific rationale to regulatory clearance. We've launched CE-marked devices, achieved FDA clearance, developed AI-driven biomarkers, and designed clinical trial strategies.

Go-to-Market & Operations

A brilliant product means nothing without a path to market. We define positioning, plan launches, build operational processes, and manage stakeholders through to commercial success.

Why GoldWhite

We are not a typical consultancy.

Most consultancies send junior analysts with a playbook. We are three directors with two PhDs, a US patent, peer-reviewed publications, and our own exits behind us. We do the work ourselves.

01

Scientists Who Speak Business

Two-thirds of our team hold PhDs from world-leading universities. We combine deep technical fluency with the commercial and financial acumen to translate innovation into funded, market-ready products.

02

Operators, Not Observers

We've founded, funded, and exited our own ventures. Traded derivatives at Goldman Sachs. Led translational science at a leading global pharmaceutical company. Designed landmark buildings across three continents. We advise from experience, not theory.

03

Embedded, Not Detached

We integrate with your team for as long as you need us. We attend your board meetings, join your investor calls, and work alongside your engineers. We succeed when you succeed.

04

AI-Native, Not AI-Aware

We have built, launched, and regulated AI-driven products in clinical environments. From CE-marked oncology biomarkers to FDA-cleared imaging tools, we understand what it takes to get AI products through development, validation, and to market. We help our clients do the same.

Our Team

Three directors. Three disciplines.

Each of us brings a distinct expertise. Together, we cover the full spectrum of what STEM startups need to succeed.
