About Corstrate, Business Development for Life Sciences Service Providers
A Flexible Solution for Business Growth
Corstrate helps life sciences service providers win more pharma, biotech and medical device clients through fractional business development, outbound lead generation and commercial strategy.
Corstrate was born from a simple conviction: business development is essential to the growth of every life sciences service provider, but not all of them have the resources or structure to hire a full-time BD team. Founded in 2019, Corstrate gives small and mid-sized service providers a flexible way to win new clients, with senior business development expertise and without the usual constraints.
Our mission
Our mission is to help life sciences service providers, from CROs and CDMOs to regulatory and pharmacovigilance consultancies, accelerate their commercial growth. We help them win pharma, biotech and medical device clients through tailored outreach, structured client acquisition programs and B2B lead generation.
We provide fractional business development services for small and mid-sized CROs, CDMOs, and life sciences service providers in the US, UK and Europe.
We bridge the gap between scientific innovation and commercial execution by helping you connect with the right decision-makers, at the right time, with the right message.
Our current view of the market is summarized in H2 2026 BD priorities for life sciences service companies.

Our vision
We believe that commercial growth in life sciences should be smarter, not just harder.
Our vision is to build a world where small and mid-sized service providers can compete, scale,
and thrive, without needing massive sales infrastructure.
Corstrate is the business development partner of life sciences service providers selling to pharma, biotech and medical device companies, combining scientific expertise with commercial
precision to help you grow globally.
A focused commercial partner for life sciences service providers
Corstrate was created to support life sciences service providers that need a more structured approach to business development. Many rely heavily on referrals and existing relationships, which can limit predictability as markets become more competitive.
Our approach treats outbound business development as a strategic function rather than a volume-driven activity. Each engagement is designed to respect the complexity of life sciences buying processes and the expertise of the people involved.
By aligning targeting, messaging, and execution, Corstrate helps clients move from reactive outreach to a more intentional and scalable commercial strategy. The focus remains on relevance, credibility, and long-term growth.
