Acorda is an early-stage life science start-up with a promising product that is close to reaching the market (Phase III clinical trials).

It faces classic in-licensing choices, including what disease indication, what stage of development, how many molecules, and on what terms.
Learning Objective:
To allow students to examine a portfolio of choices and their impact on the overall business rather than on a single licensing decision.
Setting:
