Glyn Edwards
Edwards took on the role following the immediate departure of Nigel Gaymond. Previously, he was CEO of Antisoma.
He said: “I am looking forward to working with BIA members, its Board and staff to help ensure that the UK's life sciences sector is recognised not only here in the UK but also globally.”
Of Gaymond’s departure, chairman of the trade association – whose members include service providers to the bioscience sector as well as pharmaceutical companies – Tim Edwards said: “I am delighted that Glyn has been able to join the BIA at this time. Nigel Gaymond has left to pursue other opportunities and I thank him for his engagement with members and his contribution to the BIA over the past two years.”
