Clinical supplies firm Biotec Services International has expanded its presence in Israel with the appointment of a new Israeli agent.
Dr Kela-Madar (pictured) will strengthen Biotec Services’ Business Development Team by
using her broad network in the Israeli and US biotech industries.
Kela-Madar is an expert in developing challenging markets, networks and
identifying potential opportunities by analysing the scientific and business
aspects.
Commenting on her appointment she said: “I am very happy to be joining
an International organisation like Biotec who has a fantastic reputation in
the industry and I look forward to being part of its future success. I fully
intend to make an immediate contribution to the success of the territories
for which I am responsible, to create new collaborations and to promote
Biotec’s range of services.”
In addition to expansion in Israel, the company has appointed two new Qualified Persons (QPs) to its Quality Assurance team in the UK – Dr Shawn Murtough and Dr Susan Marlow.
Murtough joins Biotec Services as a QP, previously working at Penn
Pharmaceutical Service for over ten years.
Marlow has over 16 years’ experience in the biotech and
pharma industry with specific experience in Quality Management of
IMP manufacture, testing and regulatory compliance.
Keren Winmill, chief executive at Biotec said: “We are at a very important
time in our expansion plan as we look to strengthen and grow our
international presence. Israel is a key growth area for our business so we
are delighted to have Dr Kela-Madar on board. Her knowledge of the industry
and strong Israeli network will undoubtedly strengthen our presence in this
market.
“Enhancing our QP consultancy services is also a key strategy for us as we
look to grow our international client base and we’re pleased to welcome both
Dr Shawn Murtough & Dr Susan Marlow who bring with them a wealth of
experience in this area.”
