For early-stage SMEs in this space, I thoroughly recommend engaging with MDC who have the end-to-end knowledge in complex medicines, can support your in-house team and provide access to key equipment that start-ups may not have.

As an SME, working with MDC allows us access to scientific know-how and in vivo imaging techniques that would be impossible through any other route.
