(NYSEA:IBIO), an AI-driven innovator of precision antibody immunotherapies, announced today the appointment of biotech industry veterans David Arkowitz and António Parada to its Board of Directors adding key experience in finance, leadership and antibody discovery.
“These appointments expand and strengthen our board to align with iBio’s vision of becoming a next-generation antibody discovery and development company with a robust clinical pipeline of therapeutic antibodies for cardiometabolic diseases and oncology. As a seasoned CFO, David brings extensive financial experience and industry relationships that will benefit iBio as we expand our investor base. Antonio’s deep knowledge of antibody discovery and development will help shape our strategy as we work to move from preclinical development into the clinic,” said iBio CEO and Chief Scientific Officer Martin Brenner, Ph.D., DVM. “We are honored to welcome these high-caliber executives to our board and look forward to working with them. I’d also like to thank General Tom Hill, whose leadership and guidance has been invaluable to iBio over the last sixteen years.”
David Arkowitz brings extensive financial and operational experience to the Board. He is currently Chief Financial Officer at Alkeus Pharmaceuticals, a private company developing therapies for serious diseases of the eye with high unmet need. Previously, he served as CFO and head of business development of Seres Therapeutics, Inc., CFO of Flexion Therapeutics, Inc., which was acquired by Pacira Biosciences, and Chief Operating Officer and CFO of Visterra, Inc., which was acquired by Otsuka Pharmaceutical Co., where he led finance, business development, corporate planning, and other functions. Mr. Arkowitz currently serves on the board of directors of Kineta, in addition to holding past board member and audit committee chair roles at a number of biotech and life sciences companies.
Antonio Parada is an accomplished leader in antibody drug discovery with a successful track record in fundraising and management. He is the Founder and CEO of FairJourney Biologics, a privately held and leading antibody discovery contract research organization. Prior to FairJourney, Mr. Parada was the general manager of Instituto de Biologia Molecular e Celular (IBMC) in Portugal, manager of the Clinical Trial Unit of IPO Porto – Cancer Hospital in Portugal, and site manager of Ablynx’s “Centre of Excellence in Phage Display,” a subsidiary of Sanofi S.A. (Portugal).
Mr. Parada commented, “I understand the challenges with developing next-generation antibodies and am impressed with the potential of iBio’s technology to overcome these challenges. I look forward to my work on the board and collaborating with the iBio team.” Mr. Arkowitz added, “I’m thrilled to be joining iBio’s board and am excited by the prospects of its drug discovery platform to identify undruggable targets. The combination of machine learning and advanced biological techniques that iBio has built into its drug discovery platform has the potential to address some of the greatest challenges in antibody discovery.”
