Akers Biosciences welcome Pamela E. Hibler as North American commercial team VP

Akers Biosciences has appointed Pamela E. Hibler as its North American commercial team Vice President, Sales and Distribution. Hibler has over 25 years of success in the medical device sector in sales, sales management and as a corporate director. In particular, she has specialized in helping companies to launch new and innovative technology into the healthcare market, the company said.

Since 2010, she has been working for Cogentix Medical, a global medical device company that was formed through the 2015 merger of two public entities, Uroplasty and Vision Sciences, and is focused on increasing treatment efficiency and lowering patient risk.

Prior to Cogentix Medical, she held senior sales roles with other companies including United States Surgical Corporation and Medical Horizons. At Medical Horizons, a surgical intrument manufacturer, sales and distribution organization, she was Founder and President, and led a highly succesful and multi award-winning team of internal and independent sales representatives.

John J. Gormally, Chief Executive Officer, said that her experience of selling innovative technology and products into the healthcare market, which improve the cost and efficiency of certain practices in the industry, is directly relevant to Akers Bio, whose products are focused on delivering rapid health information.

“Pamela has been highly successful in deploying and managing sales strategies that combine internal personnel with independent sales and distribution organizations – a model which Akers Bio is developing, in particular for its rapid antibody tests and those which target the large health and wellness practitioner market,” Gormally said.
