Blu Mercury brings together senior-level experts with deep roots in life sciences and biotechnology — delivering the expertise of a seasoned internal team without the overhead of a full-time hire.
When acquisitions bring together disparate systems, legacy content formats, and visual assets that don't fit new constraints, you need more than data mapping — you need intelligent curation and a flexible platform to make it work. We build custom Claris FileMaker solutions that handle batch processing, content transformation, and visual asset workflows, keeping your migration on-track and your teams aligned across global operations.
Bridge the vision-to-execution gap. Whether you need PM expertise delivered hands-on or a strategic framework to build PM discipline internally, we bring 20+ years of discovery technology, biotech services, and genomics product experience to early-stage founders.
Hands-on design and scientifically accurate content — from a practitioner who translates complex biology into clear visuals and compelling copy. Equally at home building a brand identity system from scratch or migrating legacy assets into a newly merged entity.

25+ years in biotech marketing, visual communications, and M&A integration. Jeff designs and produces marketing materials hands-on — working actively in Adobe Creative Suite across every engagement — and brings 18+ years of continuous design execution to clients who need work done, not just directed. He has led programs inside Fortune 500 life sciences companies and boutique startups, managed global teams across five countries, and built the visual systems that give newly merged organizations a coherent identity from day one. Deep expertise in AI-assisted content development and multilingual communications (English, Swedish, French).
25+ years building and launching products across discovery technologies, genomics platforms, and life sciences services at Taconic Biosciences, Thermo Fisher Scientific, GE Life Sciences, and Horizon Discovery. Now focused on helping early-stage biotech founders bridge the vision-to-execution gap — either through fractional PM delivery and knowledge transfer, or by building the PM frameworks and decision-making discipline they'll carry forward as they scale. MS, Molecular Biology — Northwestern.
25+ years building custom database systems and workflow automation for organizations from startups to global enterprises — including GE, other Fortune 500 companies, and the Olympic Committees. Bill specializes in M&A content integration: taking disparate sources and intelligently curating them into the Claris Platform (FileMaker / Connect / Studio) that handle batch processing, visual asset workflows, and complex transformations. His systems keep global migration projects on-track while maintaining data integrity across legacy systems and new constraints.
Building fast but without a full commercial team yet. We help you establish your marketing voice, product capabilities, and scientific credibility from the ground up — including two distinct product management models depending on where you are in your journey.
Scaling rapidly, managing M&A complexity, or trying to execute multiple programs at once. We surge capacity exactly where you need it, without the ramp-up time.
Strong internal teams but a specialized gap — or a need to surge without a long hiring cycle. We step in at a senior level and operate without a learning curve.
"The Blu Mercury team embedded into our integration within days. Their ability to bridge the gap between scientific depth and operational execution was unlike anything we'd seen from an outside firm."
