The pharmaceutical landscape has never been so complex and demanding, nor have the opportunities been greater. That is why, following 30 years in the pharma actives industry, I established Active Pharma Ideas. With senior roles in strategy creation, business development, principal management and having led international teams in global sourcing and sales, I bring together a rare combination of experience spread across multiple functions:- market analysis, portfolio development, supply chain & distribution, compliance and sales.

Track record includes:

- Directing API sourcing for generic first-to-market blockbusters

- Creating business development strategies for global API/excipients' distributors

- Leading international pharma product development and sourcing teams
