Uppsala, Sweden, November 19, 2024. The potency drug developer Dicot Pharma, which recently initiated a phase 2a clinical trial and was listed on Nasdaq First North, is intensifying its focus on future commercialization. One measure is strengthening the management team with the appointment of a Chief Business Officer.
The international business development expert Håkan Wickholm has been recruited for the CBO role. He brings extensive global experience from business development and multi-commercial roles within AstraZeneca such as Regional Business Development Director for Europe, the Middle East, and Africa, Nordic Vice President of Mature Brands and Local Products and CEO in the Gulf States. Håkan has also held several CEO and CBO positions in smaller development companies, including Lytix Biopharma.
"It is gratifying to announce this addition, which reflects our strong focus on business development and future commercialization. Håkan's many years of experience from the global arena, particularly at a major company like AstraZeneca, align perfectly with our progressive strategy," says Dicot Pharma CEO Elin Trampe.
"I'm genuinely excited to contribute to Dicot Pharma's commercialization efforts. I hope to leverage my experience from both large and small pharmaceutical companies, as well as the unique industry conditions of various regions, to shape a robust strategy that will bring LIB-01 all the way to market," comments Håkan Wickholm.
