Founder Stories: Kenneth Mills - Co-Founder and CEO of Regenxbio, a pioneer in gene therapies

Regenxbio is a fascinating business that is powering gene therapies that are curing disease. The company is an interesting case study on how to set a standard in life sciences, in the case of Regenxbio making adeno-associated virus (AAV) the standard vector for most gene therapies. The founders used this to build a unique business. Founded in 2009 by James Brown (COO) and Kenneth Mills (CEO), Regenxbio formed from a collaboration between the biotechnology consultancy firm FoxKiser, Penn, and the Wilson Lab. James and Kenneth were both trained as chemists and worked at a diagnostics company called IGEN in the late 1990s and early 2000s then both at Meso Scale Diagnostics, a joint venture between IGEN and Meso Scale Technologies. Before forming Regenxbio, they were both working at FoxKiser. Case study on Regenxbio - https://axial.substack.com/p/axial-re...
