Marathons. Wine. And 30 years in healthcare.

In this episode of Molecule to Market, you’ll go inside the outsourcing space of the global drug development sector with Marco Chiado’ Piat, President, at Terumo Pharmaceutical Solutions part of Terumo. Marco has worked in the pharma and healthcare sector since the early 1990s. His impressive experience has included eight years at McKinsey before he founded a VC business. He then had several senior roles at medical device specialist LivaNova before joining Terumo Pharmaceutical Solutions in 2017, where he has risen to the top. If that was not enough, he’s an accomplished marathon runner and runs a winery in Northern Italy with his brother.

Your host, Raman Sehgal, discusses the pharmaceutical and biotechnology supply chain with guest Marco Chiado’ Piat covering the importance of passion, curiosity and simply liking what you do as important pillars for serving your purpose. Marco explains how running marathons and ultra marathons has not only helped train his body for resistance but has also trained his mind for resilience. He tells Raman of the unrest Covid has caused medical device companies, and the apparent value of long term thinking that is inherent in the pharmaceutical sector. Marco closes with the importance of being ready for the unknown and unforeseen by having an ‘agility muscle’ ready to flex into action.
