Genzyme Corp.: A Financing History

Genzyme Corp.: A Financing History: "Genzyme Corp.'s financing history is unusual compared to most biotech companies. This case presents the sequence of financings employed by Genzyme, along with the product--market and corporate-development strategies adopted by Henri Termeer, Genzyme's CEO. As such, the case permits students to evaluate the sequence of financings as a 'program' rather than a series of unrelated deals and to consider them in light of the business strategy."
