As CEO of abcam, my personal mission is to ensure that our team is working toward becoming the most influential life science company for researchers worldwide. In my role over the last 9 years, I have led the transformation of every aspect of this company. As a result, abcam today is influencing the pace of scientific discovery on society because of the innovations we have brought to market. Moreover, we have build a business that we expect to deliver long term profitable and sustainable growth. At abcam, we believe the scientific community goes further, faster when we go there together. And to keep on making ground-breaking discoveries, we need to work together in new ways. That’s why we’re constantly innovating to help scientists drive their research forward by providing products and solutions that play an essential role in fundamental research, drug discovery, diagnostic and therapeutic applications. We started with a simple mission: to provide the best biological reagents to life scientists worldwide. Today, we help 750,000 researchers in over 130 countries deliver faster breakthroughs in areas like cancer, neurological disorders, infectious diseases, and metabolic disorders. I have had the privilege of working with many amazing leadership teams globally. I am energized by working with social purpose organisations that are trying to do more good in society.
