Phil Smith FCIM

I’m a commercially focused healthcare and Life Sciences leader with more than 25 years of international experience helping businesses scale, expand internationally, and navigate complex regulated markets across pharmaceuticals, biotech, diagnostics, CROs, and healthcare services.
What makes me a strong advisor or board member is my ability to combine strategic commercial thinking with practical operational leadership — having led regional growth businesses beyond $50M revenue, built global partnerships, negotiated complex commercial agreements, and worked cross-functionally across executive, commercial, scientific, and operational teams.
I’m particularly well suited to founder-led, investor-backed, or scaling healthcare and healthtech businesses that are looking to accelerate growth, strengthen commercial strategy, expand into new markets, or build scalable customer-focused healthcare models.
