While most entrepreneurs have their hearts set on being recognized as leaders, Dr. Nagma thinks of leadership as a journey and not an endgame.

Recently named one of the top 10 women entrepreneurs in India for 2020 by Forbes, Dr. Abbasi is a brilliant scientist and an astounding entrepreneur. She completed her higher studies in Business Administration, Doctoral studies in the field of Molecular Genetics, and finally, her Postdoctoral studies in the field of Molecular Biology from institutes like IMT Ghaziabad, AMU, Aligarh, and Indian Agricultural Research Institute, Delhi, India,            

In order to cater to the untapped opportunities in the industry, Dr. Nagma Abbasi established NextGen Life Sciences with an aim to bridge the gap between the needs and pains of researchers of the life sciences/biotech industry and assist the scientists to gain insight into the recent innovations and technologies, assuring a sound knowledge of the subject matter. Henceforth, with its augmented spectrum of products and solutions, NextGen is empowering the mounting realm of complex analytical challenges. The company addresses a wide range of requirements such as the sample, material characterisation, and chemical analysis to clinical diagnosis and biological-based therapeutics handling.

Being a scientist herself, Dr. Abbasi was aware of the pain points of scientists in the biotechnology, life sciences, and healthcare industry. Having this experience was beneficial for curating the services of NextGen and turning it into a successful establishment. However, like any other startup initially, the company too had to face a few challenges such as capital investments, assembling a quality team, building a customer base, and a good relationship. 

“Today, with our hard work and determination, we deliver the best of services and solutions which are smart and futuristic. As a result, NextGen has become the most preferred brand for our clients.” 

“Besides, our ultimate focus is to provide high quality and innovative products and services at competitive prices in a timely fashion to customers.”
