We’re excited to introduce you to the always interesting and insightful Martins Acha. We hope you’ll enjoy our conversation with Martins below.
Martins, looking forward to learning from your journey. You’ve got an amazing story and before we dive into that, let’s start with an important building block. Where do you get your work ethic from?
I developed my strong work ethic at a young age, inspired by my father, who exemplified discipline, dedication, and meticulousness in his work. He maintained a consistent routine, always returning home at the same time each day, which instilled in me the value of time management and reliability. Beyond his professional commitments, he demonstrated the principles of entrepreneurship and investment, teaching me how to create and manage wealth through hard work and strategic planning. His unwavering commitment to excellence and integrity has shaped my approach to work and life.

Let’s take a small detour – maybe you can share a bit about yourself before we dive back into some of the other questions we had for you?
I am an entrepreneur and the CEO of BioLife Genetics Research, a clinical trial site where we are dedicated in supporting the advancing of innovative solutions in research. I also serve on the board of companies such as Kontiki Research Services, Ceregen Health LLC, and Restore ABA and Speech Therapy, reflecting my deep commitment to improving health outcomes and delivering impactful services. While my primary focus is in the health field, my passion for entrepreneurship has led me to successfully venture into other industries, including logistics, hospitality, Quantum Dot technology etc., expanding my reach across diverse sectors.
What makes BioLife Genetics Research particularly special to me is its mission to push the boundaries, supporting biopharma, pharmaceuticals and other scientific discovery researchers that address unmet medical needs. Being at the forefront of health innovation allows me to merge my passion for healthcare with my entrepreneurial spirit, creating sustainable solutions that improve lives.
In addition to my work in healthcare, I’m excited about ongoing expansions in my businesses, including new partnerships, and growth opportunities that will further strengthen our impact. My journey is driven by a vision to inspire others, foster innovation, and create lasting change across industries, and I’m excited about what the future holds for my team and the communities we serve.

There is so much advice out there about all the different skills and qualities folks need to develop in order to succeed in today’s highly competitive environment and often it can feel overwhelming. So, if we had to break it down to just the three that matter most, which three skills or qualities would you focus on?
Looking back, the three qualities that had the greatest impact on my journey are resilience, strategic thinking, and adaptability. Resilience gave me the strength to push through challenges and setbacks, I cannot imagine how many of these challenges I had, however, I was always viewing obstacles as opportunities to learn and grow. Strategic thinking allowed me to identify opportunities, make informed decisions, and plan effectively for long-term success, while adaptability helped me stay flexible, embrace change, and pivot when necessary to remain competitive. My advice to those just starting out is to stay committed to your vision, invest in continuous learning, and remain open to new ideas and opportunities. These qualities will not only shape your growth but also set the foundation for lasting success.

Is there a particular challenge you are currently facing?
One of the biggest challenges I am currently facing is scaling operations while maintaining quality and consistency across my businesses, especially in the health sector. As my ventures continue to grow, ensuring that my teams are aligned with our vision and standards has become a top priority. To overcome this, I am investing in streamlined processes, advanced technology, and staff development programs to enhance efficiency and performance. This has not been easy; however, I have seen improvements. I am also focusing on building strong leadership teams to ensure sustainable growth without compromising the quality of service we deliver.
