Background

About Frank Simons

Expert in international business development, marketing, management and business strategies with in-depth knowledge and understanding of the life science market. I have worked in international and multidisciplinary environments and combine a sound scientific background with more than twenty years of commercial and managerial experience. I have an analytical and exploring mindset and as such able to work autonomously but at the same time like to be part of or lead a team with a common goal. In my work and interactions I have a realistic and pragmatic approach. I experienced that progress mostly comes in small steps and needs dosing and perseverance. On the personal level, I am sure that friends and colleagues would certainly acknowledge my enthusiastic personality and my excellent interpersonal and team skills. I am excited about science, innovation, healthcare, and working with products that are able to improve lives or have a real human impact.
