Bristol, UK, November 16, 2023 – eXmoor Pharma, the full-service cell and gene therapy (CGT) manufacturing partner, announced the hiring of Matthew Paterson as the company’s first Chief Commercial Officer, to spearhead the company’s growth and international footprint as it expands its contract development and manufacturing services for CGTs. Paterson joins from Quotient Sciences, where he built and led the North American business development team, creating and executing the global marketing and brand strategy. Over 18 years at Quotient, he held several senior leadership positions and most recently served as VP of Corporate Strategy.
