Cerbios announces key management changes

Lugano, Switzerland: – High-tech CDMO Cerbios-Pharma SA (Cerbios) has announced key changes to its leadership with a new Chief Commercial Officer and Director of Quality Assurance.

Mr. Denis Angioletti replaces Mr. Andrea Tam as Chief Commercial Officer (CCO) while Ms. Francesca Nembri takes over the role of QA/DRA Director and Qualified Person under European Union pharmaceutical regulations.

Strong experience

Cerbios CEO, Dr. Gabriel Haering, commented:
“Denis Angioletti, as new CCO and Francesca Nembri, as QA are both excellent additions to our team with their strong experience and competences gained in different companies.”

“We welcome additional know-how and different points-of-view as constantly delivering value to Cerbios in our 40th Anniversary year,” the CEO added.

Moves within Chemholding

Former CCO Andrea Tam has been promoted to CEO of a Cerbios’ sister company and Clarissa Gobetti (former QP) has also moved to the same company as Scientific Affairs Director.

“Both Andrea and Clarissa have really done an excellent job for Cerbios’ change and growth. Fortunately, they remain within the Chemholding group of companies and are available to support ongoing Cerbios’ activities and partners if required,” says Dr. Gabriel Haering.

“On the one hand it was not easy to let them leave Cerbios for this new venture, but on the other, it was such an opportunity for a new step in their career. I wish both of them great success: they deserve it,” said Dr. Haering.
