One of the founders of Clean Slate UV is a self-professed “Germaphobe.” It’s that kind of awareness that led to a company that created patented UV technology and intelligent software to solve, among other problems:
Smartphones are the third hand we never wash!
Clean Slate leverages the power of UV-C light to inactivate some of the most resilient bacteria and viruses without damaging devices. It’s good science that has attracted clients ranging from world-class facilities, to hospitals, to five-star hotels. They’re now in 13 countries. But like many in the biotech sector, attracting employees has always been one of the challenges.
In this episode CTO Manju Anand shares the company’s approach to attracting the right people and diversifying at the same time.

Play Later Play Later Lists Like LikedApplied Pharmaceutical Innovation (API) was launched to solve a big challenge. Commercialization within the life sciences. There’s a general lack of understanding of the technical and scientific capacity needed for a life sciences company to commercialize in Canada. API sought to fix that. Part incubator, part R&D, API helps companies scale up here in Canada where they would normally have to invest tens of millions of dollars just to build out their infrastructure. And the model is working, with growth forecast to see 60 staff currently blossom to 150 in the next 18 months. In addition, the Government of Canada recently made an $80.5 million investment in a key project API is involved in. But that success itself brings many challenges. How is API handling those?

Life Sciences BC CEO Wendy Hurlburt remembers the surge started with a spirit of collaboration just as COVID was beginning to impact the world. Then came the talent crunch that forced many members in BC to find creative ways to keep their operations open. The Metro-Vancouver bio economy has some 1,300 organizations which collectively employ about 16,000 people. Three quarters of those companies have fewer than 20 full-time staff with the largest sub sector being bio-health (50%). The bigger companies are growing exponentially and scrambling to find talent. The smaller companies, still growing, are looking for very specific, niche skills. Wendy is seeing companies react by deepening their value propositions for employees, beyond scientific pursuits to include talking about their culture and what it means to join their organization. And she’s recognized a trend that might shock… the idea that for some positions one doesn’t need a PhD to work in biotech. Guest: Wendy Hurlburt, President and CEO Life Sciences BC Wendy holds a critical leadership role in BC's dynamic life sciences ecosystem. She takes a collaborative approach to cultivate relationships between local subject matter experts, global partners, educational institutions and government to support the thriving sector. Before joining Life Sciences BC, Wendy held multiple leadership roles with Johnson & Johnson in strategic and business planning, finance, partnerships and business development, operational transformation, and quality and regulatory compliance. Prior to J & J, she held Chief Financial Officer roles for both the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Ontario and Lexmark International in its Canadian and South Asian divisions.

Is it better to have niche skills right now or a higher education? Are employees being realistic with salary expectations? What are the soft skills employers are looking for that can make an employee stand out? At the same time, companies need to continue efforts to implement diversity and inclusion into their organizational strategies. The reality is it may feel hard for smaller companies to focus on diversity, particularly when jobs out number people almost four to one. But Brunel understands companies can’t afford not to act. Diversity leads to workplace satisfaction, engagement, and new ideas. Companies that don’t do this will be left behind.

They’re actively trying to recruit from the biogas side but in Atlantic Canada that’s a challenge. One thing Anessa did right away was adopt the principles of diversity and inclusion into their recruitment practices. Co-found Amir Akbari says there was a noticeable impact when it came to working with international markets – Anessa was able to understand client culture, even languages at times that competitors just couldn’t. At the same time the internal culture of the company grew to become vibrant, creative – and led to a better product. For Anessa, diversity is a secret weapon to success.
