When I become a grandparent, I might expect to seek out older mentoring grandparents, and then later become a mentoring grandparent.

Anyone. Children just need good examples and mentoring to teach them and show them how to do things.

— Liv Tyler

IndieBio’s capital, facilities, and deep mentoring by a network of biotech-specific experts have the potential to spawn the Google, Facebook, and Instagrams of biology.
