But what does it take to be a CFO at an early-stage company? The ability to wear many hats, roll up your sleeves, and build from the ground up, says Heidi Henson, and she loves it. In her more than 20-year career in finance, Henson has been a CFO at five biotech startups. In January 2021, she became the finance chief at Pardes Biosciences, Inc. Founded in 2020, Pardes is developing oral drug candidates to fight COVID-19. The company went public in late December through a SPAC, earning approximately in gross proceeds. It trades on the under the ticker PRDS. I spoke with Henson about why she's chosen the path of a startup CFO, how she helps her team keep up with the fast pace, and what Pardes hopes to achieve. You've been a CFO at five biotech startups including Pardes, Imbria Pharmaceuticals, Kura Oncology, Wellspring Biosciences, and Intellikine Pharmaceuticals.
