Getting The Chemistry Right: How a start-up developed a global market leading product and secured a multi-million Euro buyout

In 2006, David Horan of BioTector managed to get hold of a document a competitor had prepared about the market in which they both operated. BioTector merited just two words: 'No threat'. Six years later, BioTector was independently adjudged the market leader in the US. This tiny, family owned company went up against some of the biggest companies in the world and won. In Getting The Chemistry Right, David Horan takes us on a journey from a small Co. Cork factory to boardrooms in Texas and oil refineries in Saudi Arabia. He tells the story with painful honesty, detailing the many wrong turns and failures, as well as the astonishing triumphs. He also talks openly about the stress that comes with running a business, and the personal toll it takes. The BioTector Story shows what you can achieve when you bring a group of talented people together, give them a vision and a plan to make it real.
