UK advanced wound healing company, Smart Matrix Limited (SML), has appointed Andy Hill as Chief Executive Officer, to lead SML to fully capitalise on its potential.
Leonor Stjepic has stepped down from the Board to focus on her full-time role as CEO at Restoration of Appearance and Function Trust (RAFT), now that RAFT is coming up to its 30th anniversary.
Hill joins SML with more than 30-years’ experience in the medical technology industry and a track record of building early stage businesses with new and disruptive technology in a wide range of clinical settings.
His background in management, sales and marketing enabled him to successfully raise funds for Michelson Diagnostics Limited and Intelligent Ultrasound, a software-based medical imaging company, spun-out from the University of Oxford.
Hill was also previously CEO of AIM-listed Deltex Medical.
Alan Henderson, Chair, said: “Andy comes to SML at an important time of transition for the company as we prepare for our pivotal clinical trial ahead of seeking clearance to commercialise Smart Matrix.”
“I would like to thank Leonor Stjepic for her hard work that has taken SML from a concept through to this important stage of development.”
