Met Global Mobility × Beacon Biosignals — Ground Transportation Proposal

Series B and What Comes Next

The round closed
yesterday. The calendar
starts this morning.

Beacon Biosignals just extended its Series B to $97 million — $132 million total. Jacob, you're now in the window that every founder who's been through it describes the same way: you have the capital, the credibility, and suddenly everyone wants to meet.

Pharma business development directors who didn't return your calls at Series A are now putting you on their calendar. Clinical trial sponsors want site visits. Your investors want quarterly check-ins. Conference organizers want a keynote. You have 47 people building the company. None of them are your travel manager. That's where we come in.

✈

Logan → Everywhere

Every pharma BD meeting in New Jersey, every clinical trial sponsor in Philly, every biotech conference in San Francisco starts and ends at Logan. We're there before you land and gone before you notice.

🏛

Kendall Square to Cambridge HQs

The Beacon Cambridge office to Moderna, Vertex, Biogen, Broad Institute, MIT — the entire biotech corridor is on our daily route map. Same-day, short notice. Already handled.

🤝

Partner & Investor Meetings

When a pharma partnership is worth tens of millions and the counterpart is in the car next to you, the driver cannot be a stranger who opened the app two minutes ago. Our chauffeurs are NDA-bound employees.

🔬

Clinical Site Visits

Trial sites don't cluster around Logan. Mass General, Brigham and Women's, Beth Israel, UMASS Medical — we know the routes, the logistics, and the fact that these visits run 45 minutes over schedule every single time.

This is time-sensitive. The six months after a major round is when operational infrastructure gets set — or doesn't. Companies that don't set it spend the next two years retrofitting. We've watched it happen in this industry. The ones who moved fast were the ones who could focus on the science.

The Series B Transportation Problem

What happens when
Jacob runs his own
ground logistics.

At 47 employees, no one is managing travel. That means the CEO is opening a rideshare app at 4:45am before a 6am Logan departure — and so is the visiting pharma BD director who flew in for a meeting at the Beacon office. Here is what that week looks like, and what it looks like when Met Global is the Beacon account.

Without a Dedicated Account

Rideshare surge pricing at 5am on the morning of a cross-country flight. The Pharma BD director you're pitching gets the same app. Same surge. First impression set before the meeting starts.
A visiting pharma partner — who you're negotiating a licensing deal with — is in an unknown driver's car with no NDA, no discretion, no accountability if a conversation goes further than it should.
JP Morgan Healthcare Conference, January. You need a car in San Francisco on the same night every biotech CEO in the country needs a car in San Francisco. Rideshare doesn't scale. Ours does.
A clinical trial site visit runs over. You need to pivot to Logan. You're refreshing the app in a hospital parking lot. The next flight is in 90 minutes.
You're mid-conversation on a call that can't be interrupted. Your driver can't find the building and is texting you. Your EA — who you don't have — would have handled this.
The administrative overhead of booking, tracking, and expensing every ride lands on a member of your 47-person team. That is not what you raised $132 million to do with those people.

Met Global Mobility · Beacon Account

One phone number. One account manager. You or anyone on the Beacon team books a car — your office, Logan, a clinical site, a hotel — in under two minutes. No app required.
Every chauffeur on the Beacon account is NDA-bound. Pharma partners, investors, clinical collaborators — your conversations are protected before the car door closes.
Conference runs — JP Morgan, BIO, SLEEP, AAN — handled with advance booking tied to your calendar. Fleet reserved against your dates. No surge. No availability gap.
Live flight tracking means your car is staged when you land — not five minutes after you texted us. We know the flight is late before you do.
While you're on the call, your chauffeur is already parked and waiting. They've been briefed on the building, the staging area, the exit protocol. You don't need to say a word.
Monthly consolidated billing. One invoice. Clean P&L. Your finance team handles it in ten minutes and never has to chase down individual receipts or expense reports.

The Invisible Infrastructure Principle.

The best ground transportation infrastructure at a company is the kind no one at the company ever thinks about. It simply works — perfectly, quietly, every time. Beacon's science team should be thinking about biosignal algorithms and trial design. The CEO should be thinking about the next partnership and the next round. Not about whether the car is three minutes away or twelve.

We've set this up for biotech companies at Series B and Series C in the Kendall Square corridor. The pattern is always the same: the companies that move fast on operational infrastructure focus faster on the work that matters. The ones that don't spend years retrofitting.

The Routes That Matter for Beacon

Every run your team
makes. Already mapped.

Beacon Biosignals no longer operates out of a single office. Between the Cambridge HQ, the Cleveland operations acquired with CleveMed, a Paris office, pharma partnerships spanning Novartis and Takeda, and investor relationships from Boston to the Bay Area — your team is running a genuinely global schedule. These are the corridors we cover, starting day one, no onboarding required.

Daily Core Route

Beacon Cambridge ↔ Logan Airport (BOS)

Live flight tracking, 60-minute complimentary wait, meet-and-greet service available. Your chauffeur knows Terminal A from Terminal E, the international arrivals protocol, and how to stage for a last-row exit at 5:55am without blocking the Massport lane. This run is already in muscle memory for our team.

Biotech Corridor

Kendall Square → Moderna, Vertex, Biogen, Broad Institute, MIT

The Cambridge/Kendall Square biotech corridor is one of our highest-volume run clusters. Same-day, short-notice, often back-to-back. Your team books it. It happens. No one thinks about it again.

Pharma Partnership Meetings

Boston / Cambridge → Waltham, Lexington, Watertown Pharma Campuses

Sarepta, Takeda, Shire, Teva — the suburban pharma campuses that are 35 minutes from Kendall Square and impossible to reach on public transit. Often the most important meeting of the quarter. These runs get NDA-bound chauffeurs and confirmed staging, every time.

Clinical Trial Site Visits

Mass General · Brigham and Women's · Beth Israel · UMASS Medical · McLean Hospital

Trial sites run late. Parking is a problem. The conversation you need to have on the way back is the one that determines next steps. Your chauffeur waits. Your time is protected. The route home from Shrewsbury to Cambridge at 6pm is already in the system.

Investor & Board Meetings

Cambridge / Back Bay → Financial District · Seaport · Needham · Wellesley

Board members and lead investors deserve the same discretion as your pharma partners. NDA-bound chauffeurs, clean vehicles, no conversation they'd regret. The Boston VC corridor from Kendall Square to Needham is a route we run dozens of times a week.

Conference Circuit

JP Morgan Healthcare · BIO International · SLEEP · AAN · OHBM · ISPOR

The conferences that matter to Beacon are on our advance-booking calendar. Fleet reserved against your dates. San Francisco, San Diego, Chicago, Nashville — we coordinate with your hotel and your schedule, and the car is confirmed before you board the outbound flight.

Boston–Cleveland Corridor

Cambridge HQ ↔ Cleveland · CleveMed Operations

The CleveMed acquisition added a second operational hub. Technical teams, clinical leadership, and integration runs between Boston and Cleveland are now a standing requirement. We cover Cleveland Hopkins (CLE), executive transfers to the CleveMed facility, and same-account billing so both teams book through a single line.

US Tech & Bio Corridor

Boston ↔ New York · Palo Alto · Bay Area

Investor relations and partnership development run through New York and the Bay Area. Whether it's a board member flying into JFK, a Series C prep meeting in San Francisco, or a same-day Amtrak return from Penn Station — the Beacon account covers all of it under one invoice, whether the run is in Boston or 3,000 miles away.

Global Coverage

One account.
Everywhere Beacon operates.

Beacon has a Paris office. Novartis is in Basel and East Hanover. Takeda is in Zurich and Cambridge. The pharma partnerships driving your revenue don't stay inside Route 128 — and neither do we. Met Global Mobility provides the same executive standard, the same NDA-bound chauffeurs, and the same single account manager whether the run is Logan to Kendall Square or CDG to Novartis Campus.

One Account. One Invoice. One Standard — Everywhere.

As Beacon scales internationally, the last thing your team should be managing is a different ground vendor in every city. Met Global Mobility provides a single account, a single point of contact, and a consistent executive standard whether the run is in Cambridge or at CDG. Your Boston Account Manager coordinates everything — the Paris run is booked through the same line as the Logan transfer, billed on the same monthly invoice, held to the same SLA. Beacon never touches a local vendor again.

Select Fleet

50+ owned vehicles —
none subcontracted.

Every vehicle is owned and maintained by Met Global Mobility, under two years old, and prepared before every run. When a pharma BD director is in the back seat discussing a clinical data partnership, the vehicle they're in reflects the company that sent the car — which is now Beacon Biosignals.

Partnership Commitments

Five things that
define the standard.

No Subcontractors. Ever. On Any Beacon Run.

Every chauffeur on the Beacon account is a W-2 employee of Met Global Mobility. No gig workers. No third-party dispatch. No contractor whose only qualification is a clean driving record and an app. When a pharma partner is in our car discussing Beacon's clinical pipeline, that driver is our employee — screened, trained, insured, and NDA-bound. This is non-negotiable. We put it in writing.

Rideshare / App

Contractor. Zero vetting beyond MVR. No NDA. No accountability for what's said in the car.

Live Flight Tracking — Your Car Is There When You Land

We track every inbound flight on the Beacon account in real time. When your flight is delayed, we know before you do. When it lands early, your car is already staged. The standard for every Logan transfer is wheels-down to curbside in under 20 minutes — meet-and-greet service available for international arrivals or delegations. You close your laptop. The car is there.

Rideshare / App

Open app at baggage claim. 8-minute ETA. Surge active. Driver cancels.

Dedicated Account Manager — One Person, Always Reachable

Every Beacon account gets a named Account Manager with a direct line — not a call center, not a ticket queue, not a chatbot. When something needs to be sorted fast — a late arrival, a changed drop-off, a last-minute booking at 5:30am — you reach a person who knows the Beacon account, knows the chauffeur pool, and resolves it in under five minutes. Available 24 hours. Seven days.

A named backup Account Manager is briefed on the Beacon account and available whenever the primary is unreachable. There is no moment when the Beacon account is uncovered.

Rideshare / App

Support chat. 20-minute response. No one who knows your account.

Consolidated Monthly Billing — One Invoice, Clean Records

Every Beacon team member who uses the account books under the same corporate profile. No personal credit cards. No expense reports. No receipt chasing. At month-end, one invoice — itemized by department, traveler, date, and route — goes to your finance team. They reconcile it in ten minutes and never follow up with anyone.

This matters more than it sounds. At Series B, operational overhead compounds fast. Ground transportation managed through individual rideshare accounts is a category that quietly consumes hours of finance bandwidth every month. We close that loop completely.

Rideshare / App

47 employees. 47 expense reports. One finance manager reconciling receipts instead of doing their job.

Biosignal-Grade Reliability — We Hold the Standard You Set

Beacon Biosignals is building infrastructure that clinicians and pharma companies will rely on to make decisions. Your ground transportation partner should hold themselves to the same standard. We track on-time performance, staging accuracy, and service incidents with the same rigor we'd expect from a clinical-grade service provider. Monthly reporting available. SLA executed at launch.

Rideshare / App

No SLA. No accountability. One-star review and move on.

Confidentiality & Discretion

The conversations that
happen in cars are
our responsibility.

Beacon is in pharma partnership negotiations. You're discussing clinical trial data, EEG biomarker IP, and licensing terms with counterparts who are simultaneously talking to your competitors. The ground transportation partner who moves those conversations is as sensitive a vendor as any in your ecosystem.

We treat it that way — structurally and contractually, not as a talking point.

NDA — Standard	All Met Global Mobility chauffeurs and operations staff sign a binding non-disclosure agreement as a condition of employment. This covers guest identity, travel patterns, conversation content, and any business-sensitive information encountered during a trip. It is not a custom ask — it is standard on every account.
Guest Identity	Chauffeur briefings do not include the purpose of a trip, the business affiliation of passengers, or any information beyond the name, route, and timing required to execute the run. Pharma partners and investors are not identified to drivers by company name or role.
W-2 Only	No subcontractors ever carry Beacon passengers. The NDA applies only to Met Global employees. Contractor arrangements create gaps in confidentiality coverage that we eliminate entirely by running a W-2-only fleet.
No Solicitation	Met Global will never contact, market to, or accept direct bookings from Beacon passengers — including pharma partners and investors who ride with us on your account. In writing. Permanently. Extended beyond the term of the partnership.
Incident Protocol	Any security-sensitive incident — whether involving passenger identity, vehicle access, or conversation exposure — is reported to the Beacon Account Manager within 15 minutes. Written incident report delivered within 24 hours. Full chain of accountability documented.
Background Screening	Criminal background checks every six months. Motor vehicle record reviewed quarterly. Medical fitness and vision clearance confirmed. All certifications maintained continuously — not checked once at hire.

Note for pharma-partnered biotech companies: We have moved confidential due diligence meetings, clinical partnership negotiations, and investor term sheet discussions for companies at exactly Beacon's stage. The discretion standard is the same on every run — not selectively applied to flagged trips. Because we don't know which trips are sensitive, we treat them all as if they are.

When the Pressure Is Highest

How the partnership
holds up when it
actually matters.

Beacon's most important runs are also the most time-sensitive. Here is how we handle the edge cases — because the edge cases are the ones you remember.

Scenario 01 — The Delayed Inbound

A senior Pfizer BD director is flying in from New York for a clinical partnership meeting at the Beacon office. Her EWR-BOS flight is delayed 90 minutes.

Our live flight tracking detects the delay the moment it is filed. Your Account Manager updates the driver automatically. You get a text — not a question to answer, just a confirmation of the new staging time. The director lands, exits baggage claim, and finds a chauffeur with her name on a card. She does not touch a rideshare app. Her first impression of Beacon's operational standard is set before she walks through your door.

Scenario 02 — JP Morgan Healthcare, 8am Panel

Jacob is presenting at JP Morgan Healthcare in San Francisco. Same morning, 47 other biotech CEOs need a car at 7:45am from the same two hotels.

We booked against Jacob's calendar 30 days out. Fleet is pre-positioned. No rideshare surge — we don't touch dynamic pricing. Vehicle confirmed, driver name and direct number sent the night before. Jacob walks out at 7:30am. The car is already there. He runs his last-minute prep on the way to Moscone. He doesn't open a single app.

Scenario 03 — The Clinical Site Run Long

A site visit at McLean Hospital runs 75 minutes over schedule. Jacob needs to get from Belmont to Logan for a 7pm departure. It's now 5:15pm.

The chauffeur has been waiting — standard on all clinical site runs. The Account Manager was notified at the 60-minute mark and already has the Logan route mapped with live traffic. Jacob gets in the car, calls his team, and stops thinking about the flight. He makes it. The debrief happens on the phone during the drive, which is what actually mattered anyway.

Scenario 04 — The 4:45am Logan Departure

5:30am departure to a board meeting in New York. Sedan booked. Pre-dawn pickup from Cambridge. The car needs to be there before Jacob walks outside.

Pre-dawn runs are not an exception — they're a daily occurrence in our dispatch calendar. The chauffeur is staged at 4:50am. Confirmation with vehicle plate, driver name, and photo sent the night before. Jacob walks out at 5:05am. The car is already running. He doesn't check his phone for a location. He's in his seat, reviewing his notes before the driver turns out of the driveway. That is the standard every time.

ESG Alignment

Every trip offset.
Automatically.

Beacon operates in a heavily regulated space alongside pharma partners who maintain corporate ESG commitments. Ground transportation carbon reporting is a line item in your eventual investor and partner sustainability documentation. We close it, automatically, at no additional cost.

100%

Carbon Offset on Every Trip

Certified carbon offset applied to every Beacon account trip — every clinical site visit, every Logan transfer, every conference shuttle. No opt-in required. No additional charge. Every run, every time.

GHG

Monthly Protocol Reporting

GHG Protocol-compliant reporting delivered monthly. PDF + Excel. Export-ready for Beacon's investor sustainability reporting, pharma partner ESG documentation, and future B-Corp or CSRD requirements.

Route Optimisation

AI-driven dispatch routing to minimize total mileage. Reduces fuel consumption, reduces emissions, and — materially for a company running clinical site visits across the region — reduces total travel time across the Beacon team.

ESG

Investor & Partner Ready

Ground transportation emissions summary formatted for inclusion in Series C investor decks, pharma partner ESG requests, and life sciences industry sustainability reporting frameworks. Already structured. Already done.
