| Nigel Davis, MA, PhD, MBA |
|
has over 20 years of experience in the biotech/pharmaceutical industry with an unusual and very diverse career history. After obtaining his degree in Natural Sciences and PhD in Biochemistry/Molecular Biology from Cambridge University, he completed Post-doctoral research into the antibiotic-producing Streptomyces at the John Innes Institute, before joining Glaxo Group Research as a research team leader. He next moved back to Cambridge as Research manager for a biotech company where he soon moved into Business Development and commercial management, finally taking on the role of managing director for the UK subsidiary of a US company. Following the biotech funding down-turn at the end of the 90’s, Nigel diversified his experience by studying for the Executive MBA at London Business School, whilst also working at Isis Innovation (Oxford, UK) in technology transfer. This was followed by five years as a Consultant at PharmaVentures, where he became a Senior Director and Head of Transactions. He founded Sivaden in 2006.
