Helping Innovators in Life Sciences Get to Market Faster

We’re delighted to announce the launch of PM Life Sciences Consulting, co-founded by Dr David Montgomery and Dr Sheuli Porkess, two of the UK’s most respected names in pharmaceutical medicine, policy, and healthcare innovation.

PM Life Sciences Consulting exists to help organisations across the life sciences sector. From start-ups and small life sciences companies through to established pharma and research charities, we navigate the complex path from idea to implementation, focusing on commercialising healthcare innovations that could transform patient care.

“We’ve spent decades working across the ecosystem, with pharma and medical technology, with policy-makers and with clinicians, in the UK and internationally” says co-founder Dr David Montgomery. “Now we’re using that experience to help the next generation of pioneers achieve meaningful impact and do it faster, smarter, and more sustainably.”

Built on Deep Experience

Between them, David and Sheuli bring a powerful mix of leadership in medical affairs, clinical development, policy, commercial strategy, and UK market access. Their track records include senior roles in the pharmaceutical and health technology sector, the charity sector, national and international committees and the Faculty of Pharmaceutical Medicine, advising across multiple therapeutic areas, medicines and technologies.

“This is a pivotal moment for life sciences, both in the UK and beyond” adds co- founder Dr Sheuli Porkess. “Exciting developments in science and AI, together with the recent publication of the NHS Ten Year Health Plan, UK Life Sciences Sector Plan and the EU Life Science Sector Strategy set the scene for a shift in Life Sciences. We are excited to help organisations navigate these changes and bring innovations to patients as quickly as possible”.

What We Offer

PM Life Sciences Consulting offers:

  • Strategic advice: helping startups refine their positioning, access routes, and growth plans

  • Operational support: from UK launch strategy to team recruitment, including provision of interim support as UK General Manager or CMO

  • Board-level input: ad hoc advice or long-term non-exec roles

  • A flexible model: including equity or performance-based partnerships

PM Life Sciences Consulting is here to bridge the gap between vision and execution across the range of medical innovation.

Let’s Talk

We’re already supporting a range of early-stage companies and are actively looking to connect with founders, investors, and ecosystem partners who share our ambition to bring meaningful innovation to life.

“Our goal is to make sure world-class ideas don’t get lost in translation,” says David. “We want to make success more achievable, and less lonely, for the next generation of life science leaders.”
