Mike Rea makes the top 100 Most Inspiring People in the Life-Sciences Industry list

IDEA Pharma’s Principal IDEAtor, Mike Rea, has been voted among the PharmaVOICE Top 100 Most Inspiring People in the Life-Sciences Industry, leading the charge for innovation.

The distinguished honourees were nominated by thousands of PharmaVOICE readers and were selected based on well-crafted and comprehensive essays describing how individuals inspired or motivated them or effected positive changes as well as other factors, such as community and philanthropic activities.

As IDEA continues to change the way Pharma thinks about how to take its molecules to market, the shared values and beliefs of the company stem from Mike’s initial thought leadership.

With such a clearly defined ethos, ideology, and a pragmatic (yet creative) approach to achieving innovation, IDEA not only attracts like-minded people to its business, but also those within the industry who believe that moving away from restrictive process towards the discipline of innovation is fundamental in seeing products succeed post launch.

Commenting on the ranking, Mike said: “Making the top 100 list is truly something to be proud of… but I don’t see it as a personal rating. It is an accolade that has been earned by the whole IDEA team. It is their energy and drive that enables us to reach so far and wide, and makes coming into work fun every single day. We have seen a remarkable rise over recent years by being the best at what we do in Phase II, challenging our clients to embrace innovation and remove the chains of process set by management consultancies and Pharma traditionalists.”

“The PharmaVOICE 100 are individuals who think outside the box, pioneer new paths to success, and inspire their colleagues in the industry; they translate industry issues into opportunities and take the time to mentor the next generation of leaders in the life-sciences arena,” said Taren Grom, editor-in-chief and cofounder of PharmaVOICE. “We are extremely pleased to recognize these 100 individuals.”
