Emily Otterbeck

Emily did her undergraduate degree in Biochemistry at UCL and an MPhil in Bioscience Enterprise from the University of Cambridge. At the start of her career, she spent time in a lab at Harvard School of Public Health researching the area of immunometabolism. Having always been passionate about music, she left the lab to join an early-stage tech startup working to solve music rights management and licensing; here she worked on strategy and business development, implementing new revenue models, product expansion and managing partnerships.

Emily loves to get into the nitty-gritty of product and (bio)tech. Health equity, and especially women’s health, holds a special place in her heart – she is a co-founder of the Cambridge Femtech Society which is working to improve systemic challenges in the women’s health space by increasing awareness and engagement in the academic community.
