Andrew Hirsch, C4 Therapeutics CEO

An­drew Hirsch lines up a chunk of eq­ui­ty in his new job as C4 spells out de­vel­op­ment plans in IPO

An­drew Hirsch’s first job as the new­ly-mint­ed CEO of C4 Ther­a­peu­tics was al­ready ful­ly spelled out ahead of his ar­rival.

On Thurs­day, the biotech jumped in­to the queue of biotechs an­gling for a slice of the bil­lions flow­ing through Nas­daq and in­to life sci­ences.

Less than 3 months af­ter a large syn­di­cate jumped in­to a $170 mil­lion crossover raise for C4, and just 2 days af­ter pub­licly tap­ping the long­time biotech ex­ec to take the reins, the pro­tein degra­da­tion out­fit has pen­ciled in a $100 mil­lion goal in the IPO. But in this mar­ket, that’s a thresh­old out­line that could point to a much larg­er sum.
