Molecule to Market: Inside the outsourcing space

The CEO leading Ensera's evolution


Listen Later

In this episode of Molecule to Market, you’ll go inside the outsourcing space of the global drug development sector with Jason Anderson, Chief Executive Officer at Ensera.

 

Your host, Raman Sehgal, speaks with Jason about the pharmaceutical and biotechnology supply chain, covering:

  • Why he chose BASF over law school, and why McKinsey ultimately was not for him
  • Moving from corporate life into a venture-backed polymer technology start-up before a major exit
  • The search for a PE-backed specialty manufacturing role that led him to Ensera (formerly SteriPack)
  • The importance of appreciating local knowledge when entering new markets
  • Similarities and differences between outsourced services in pharma and medical devices
  • How today’s changes, pain, and uncertainty in the markets are creating opportunity
  • Jason Anderson is CEO of Ensera (formerly SteriPack), a global contract design and manufacturing organization serving the pharmaceutical and medical device industries. He has led the company through a period of significant growth and change, including the integration of new design and product development capabilities with Ensera’s core manufacturing services, and the launch of the new Ensera trading name.

     

    Prior to Ensera, Jason held global business unit leadership roles at DJO/Enovis and at Saint-Gobain, overseeing businesses ranging from finished medical devices to customized, high-value components for biopharma and medical device industries. Earlier in his career, he held leadership roles at pre-revenue polymer technology start-up Novomer, at McKinsey and Company, and at BASF.

     

    Jason has lived and worked in North America, Asia, and Europe. He holds a BS in Chemical Engineering from the University of Oklahoma and an MBA from Harvard Business School.
