LUND,
Sweden, Feb. 21, 2025 /PRNewswire/
-- Immunovia (IMMNOV: Nasdaq Stockholm), the pancreatic
cancer diagnostics company, today announces that it will be hiring
a new Chief Financial Officer (CFO) as its focus turns to the US
market.
As Immunovia transitions to commercializing its test in the
second half of 2025, the company's financial leadership needs are
changing. The launch of Immunovia's pancreatic cancer test in the
USA creates a need for deeper
expertise and relationships in the US diagnostics market as well as
global capital markets. The company is conducting a search for a
CFO with diagnostics or med tech operating experience, a network of
US industry contacts, and a track record of successfully
communicating with capital markets across different
geographies.
With this move, Karin Almqvist Liwendahl, will be stepping down
as CFO of Immunovia.
"Karin has played an important role in the transformation of
Immunovia over the last three years," says Jeff Borcherding, CEO and President of
Immunovia. "Karin has helped us streamline the organization, lower
operating costs, and reduce our cash burn. I appreciate all she has
done and wish Karin the best in her next endeavor."
Karin will continue to fulfill her responsibilities as CFO until
the end of the first quarter of 2025. Immunovia has initiated the
recruitment process for a successor. In the interim period,
financial leadership responsibilities will be assumed by
Jeff Borcherding and Immunovia
finance team members.
