After starting his career at Andersen Consulting (Accenture), Barry helped to build Derma Sciences from a $7M gauze and bandage company to an $80M company with a focus on advanced wound care, resulting in its acquisition by Integra Life Sciences. He is thrilled to have the opportunity to work with old friends on a fun, dynamic, market-creating business.
Phil is an experienced medtech entrepreneur (two successful medical device exits, plus an active investment portfolio). He has broad management expertise, with specific interests in design, business development, B2B marketing & IP management. Barry and Phil have been friends for 14 years through Derma Sciences, for which Phil’s most recent business was a key vendor.
Toby spent 18 years at Deutsche Bank in public take-overs, fund raising, IPOs and advising listed companies on corporate strategy. For 6 years headed CICC’s investment banking for Europe.
