Perry previously spent more than six years at TrialCard, a provider of enterprise management solutions to biopharmaceutical firms, where he served as senior vice president of finance.

With our added capabilities and ongoing infrastructure investments, we are better able to serve our clients and help them succeed when addressing quality, engineering, and product development challenges that arise when bringing products to market.”
Kymanox achieved growth of 45% in fiscal year 2021 as demand for consulting services in the life sciences industry accelerated in the pandemic era.
