Compass was founded in 2008 by Brett Forrest after noticing that it was challenging to access consultants and professionals with the precise skills and experience that his biotech team required. Despite the promises of many companies, he knew there had to be a better way to match life science companies with skilled professionals – and that’s when Compass was born. Using the logo of a compass – a device that provides direction – Brett formed a company with a mission to provide excellent service, superior talent, and lasting partnerships. Compass’s purpose is to provide guidance and direction for life science companies and professionals across the U.S. Since 2008, Compass has grown to serve life science, biopharma, and medical device companies of all sizes and in all stages of growth. We attribute our growth to our commitment of excellent service and true partnerships. By understanding the immediate and long-term strategic goals of our clients, we can respond quickly and accurately to needs, even as they change and evolve over time.
