Qinecsa, a leading provider of technology-driven pharmacovigilance services, has appointed Adam Sherlock as its new CEO, marking a significant growth phase for the company. Sherlock, a veteran in the life sciences sector with over 35 years of experience, will leverage Qinecsa's expertise and technology to tackle complex product safety challenges in the pharmaceutical industry.
This leadership change follows the merger of Bioclinica DSS, MyMeds&Me, and Commonwealth Informatics under the Qinecsa brand, along with the recent integration of Insife. Supported by Stanley Capital Partners, Qinecsa stands out as a pure pharmacovigilance specialist, offering independent services and advanced technological solutions to meet the intricate safety needs of its clients.
Sherlock's appointment is expected to unlock new service innovations, broaden market reach, and enhance patient safety. He replaces John Gillie, who has led the company through a pivotal transition. As part of this change, former leaders Humaira Qureshi and Rahul Jaisingh will also depart, allowing Sherlock to assemble a new leadership team.
Yair Erez, a partner at Stanley Capital, expressed enthusiasm for Sherlock's vision and commitment to improving patient outcomes, emphasizing the bright future ahead for Qinecsa. Sherlock himself conveyed excitement about leading the company into its next growth phase, highlighting Qinecsa's role as a trusted partner for global life sciences organizations.
He aims to continue developing technology-led pharmacovigilance solutions, noting Qinecsa's unique position in the market. The company provides both technology-enabled services and proprietary tools, such as Reportum, a digital intake platform for real-time data capture, and the Commonwealth Vigilance Workbench, which aids in proactive signal management for pharmaceutical companies.
Qinecsa plans to showcase its innovative technology and services at upcoming World Drug Safety Congress events in Europe and the US, further solidifying its commitment to advancing product safety in the pharmaceutical sector.
