| BOULDER, Colo., /PRNewswire/ -- Inscripta™, a leading gene-editing technology company, today announced the addition of Jason T. Gammack as the company’s first chief commercial officer. Gammack, a 25-year veteran of life sciences commercial operations, will leverage his experience at leading biotechnology companies to design and oversee Inscripta’s sales, marketing, business development, and customer support operations.
“We are assembling an elite team to develop, build, and provide our innovative gene-editing portfolio to customers, and Jason brings outstanding experience that will ensure these essential tools help researchers unlock the next age of genetic discovery,” said Kevin Ness, CEO of Inscripta. “He is known as a trailblazing executive with a track record of building strong sales and marketing operations for some of the most important life science companies in the industry. Jason is a truly inspiring leader and Inscripta is fortunate to have him join our team.” Gammack has spent his entire career developing product and commercial strategies for some of the life science industry’s most preeminent brands. He was most recently at QIAGEN, where he led the development of the life science portfolio and go-to-market strategy as the vice president of the life science business area. Prior to QIAGEN, Gammack developed commercialization growth strategies as an executive at Ingenuity Systems, a leading bioinformatics company acquired by QIAGEN in 2013. He has also held senior leadership roles at Sigma-Aldrich (SIAL), Life Technologies (LIFE), Affymetrix (AFFX), and Promega Corporation. “Simply put, Inscripta’s platform is the holy grail of biology. Our groundbreaking technology will allow researchers to ask fundamental biological questions never before thought possible,” said Gammack. “To realize the disruptive potential of the platform, we will focus on two significant levers: content and community. I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to apply my experience to the most significant scientific development of my lifetime: genome writing.” The addition of Gammack is the latest landmark in Inscripta’s growth.
