Dr Gregor Lichtfuss

Biotech entrepreneur and founder, and trying hard to prepare young people for the future of life

Dr Gregor Lichtfuss is a biotech entrepreneur who co-created Cardior Pharmaceuticals and co-founded ASX-listed Exopharm. Working with students as an industry partner has been central to his approach: Exopharm hosted over 10 students and later employed nine. He has served on Biomedical and Health Science advisory boards at Monash and Swinburne, and since 2025 has been involved in student programs across Melbourne, Monash and Swinburne spanning nine projects in 2025 alone. Seeing the challenges approaching over the next 25 years also compelled him to start creating a book to prepare young people for their future.
