January, 2025. Michael Ewing is a Managing Director focused on life sciences and bio-pharma outsourced services. His clients provide services to drug developers at every point along the development paradigm, from very early-stage ideation and screening through all phases of pre-clinical testing, animal toxicology and clinical development, data collection and analysis, protocol design, patient recruitment, clinical trial conduct/management, FDA application preparation and submission, regulatory consultation and post-approval commercial manufacturing, packaging, and distribution.
Prior to Peakstone, Mike was a Managing Director at Capstone Partners. In 1996 Mr. Ewing lead the structuring and capitalization of a cross-border joint venture with the Ministry of Public Health of the People’s Republic of China that included the creation of the first Contract Research Organization (CRO) and GLP laboratory in the PRC.
Mr. Ewing spent 11 years with Montrose Group, an incubator/venture capital firm formed to create companies based on disruptive technologies to reform the way in which new drugs were developed. Montrose Group was created in response to the dramatic acceleration of the volume and complexity of drug discovery driven by the discovery of new human disease pathways that followed from the decoding of the human genome and subsequent biological discoveries.
Since 1996 his career has revolved around the drug development paradigm, whether as a banker or investor. He works with innovative, entrepreneurial firms seeking to accelerate the development of therapeutic and diagnostic discoveries that can benefit patients and caregivers by pushing the boundaries of science and medicine. He works to assist clients in implementing strategies to capitalize and provide liquidity to creators of innovative approaches to enhance patients’ well-being.
Mr. Ewing holds a B.A. degree in Mathematics/Economics from Indiana University and a J.D. from the Maurer School of Law at Indiana University, Bloomington. He resides in New Jersey and is an avid skier, sailor and father to three (thankfully) grown children.
