Ken Song almost never got into radiopharmaceuticals. But after back-to-back phone calls from venture capital leaders at Versant and venBio in March 2020, the repeat life sciences CEO took a deep dive into the field, which at that point was outside the radar of most people in drug development.

$4.1 billion
. Blink too quickly, and pieces of the RayzeBio story could easily be missed. The company went from

in three months. Over 90 days, the 120-employee operation also went from
IPO
to acquisition.
