Datatrial's Dr. Emma Banks Selected To Join Bionow Strategic Advisory Board

CEO of Boutique Data Management Company to Help Define Strategy for Regional Membership Organization

Chief executive officer Dr. Emma Banks of Datatrial, a boutique clinical data organization, has accepted an invitation to join the Strategic Advisory Board of Bionow, a life science membership organization focused on the North of England.

Following a recent merger with the Centre of Excellence for Life Sciences Ltd (Cels), Bionow is expanding its geographic footprint. As a result, chief executive officer Geoff Davison, PhD, and his colleagues were intent on ensuring that the Strategic Advisory Board reflected that focus, while also pursuing a cross-section of the organization’s membership with regard to subsector, organization type and size—which led Bionow to Dr. Banks.

“Working with our Northeast-based colleagues, we identified Datatrial as one of the leading SMEs in the Northeast, as well as a leader in the clinical trials arena nationally and internationally,” said Davison. “This, added to Emma being recognized as a standout individual in the sector, meant that we were honored and extremely grateful when Emma agreed to join our Strategic Advisory Board.”

As part of the Strategic Advisory Board, Dr. Banks will be tasked with reviewing and commenting on overall Bionow strategy as well as offering advice pertaining to strategic partners and new services. She will also be in position to lend guidance to the Board of Directors regarding future direction and operational plans for the organization.

“The regional focus of Bionow, combined with the caliber of individuals on the board and in the membership, made it an easy decision to accept this offer,” said Dr. Banks. “I look forward to contributing to the important efforts undertaken by Bionow at present and in the future.”
