Biotech isn’t the first thing that comes to mind when people think of Cyprus, but Dr Marianna Prokopi-Demetriades is changing that. In this episode of Made in Cyprus, we sit down with Marianna: biotech founder, Forbes-listed innovator, and the woman behind three life sciences companies working to change the way cancer is treated.
From losing close family members to cancer, to building therapies that reverse cancer cells, Marianna shares the story behind her mission and the immense resilience it takes to launch biotech startups on an island not yet built for it.
We talk about science with empathy, raising millions from values-aligned investors, and why caring with heart is just as important as creating a cure. This is a powerful conversation on trauma, purpose, and the fight to bring meaningful innovation to life no matter the odds.
