04/07/2012

On July 1st, Maurizio Suppo, Ph. D., joined Qarad (Belgium) as principal consultant. He strengthens Qarad’s team of consultants, specialized in Regulatory Affairs and Quality Assurance for the medical device industry and with a clear focus on in vitro diagnostics (IVD). The Belgian company thus establishes presence in Italy, where Dr. Suppo’s office is located.

Since 1986, Dr. Suppo has been holding positions in regulatory affairs and quality assurance in the IVD industry. He worked for Sorin Biomedica, Becton Dickinson and Dade-Behring and for the last 5 years was Vice President at Siemens Healthcare in Germany. As Director of the European Diagnostic Manufacturers Association in the period 1995-1997, he played an active role in the creation of the European IVD Directive.

Qarad’s President Dirk Stynen, Ph. D., says: “We are very happy that Dr. Suppo joins our team. His vast experience in worldwide regulations and quality assurance in the IVD industry will further strengthen Qarad’s position as the leading European consultancy company for IVDs. We will now be able to assist IVD manufacturers not only with European regulations but also with regulations in other geographic areas. Dr. Suppo is a talented speaker and his much appreciated contributions to seminars and conferences will increase Qarad’s exposure to regulatory professionals. With an office in northern Italy and our capability of working in 6 languages, we are now ready for further expansion.”
