Alain Segers

I am a seasoned executive with over 30 years of hands-on leadership across the full MedTech and Biopharma value chain — from early-stage science to international commercialisation at scale.
What sets me apart is a rare combination: a PhD in Molecular Biology gives me the scientific credibility to challenge R&D assumptions, while my track record as CCO, General Manager, and Marketing Director across companies like Baxter, Cerus, and Gambro BCT gives me the commercial depth to translate innovation into revenue. I%27ve launched breakthrough products, built and restructured commercial teams across EMEA and beyond, carried full P&L responsibility, and navigated companies through M&A transitions. I know what %22proof to profit%22 actually requires — not in theory, but from the real world.
As an advisor or board member, I bring three things together: scientific rigour, commercial instinct, and cross-cultural execution experience.
The companies that benefit most from my profile are early- to growth-stage MedTech and Biopharma companies preparing to scale commercially — particularly those entering European or international markets for the first time, navigating a first product launch, restructuring their go-to-market approach, or preparing for investment or an M&A event.
