Maetrics Selects Global Life Sciences Consulting Veteran With Inventive Plan To Continue Its Double Digit Growth In The Key U.S. Mid-Atlantic Region

PRINCETON, New Jersey, Feb. 24, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Mark Hassenplug, dynamic President of fast-tracking global life sciences consulting firm, Maetrics, announced his selection of Stephen Cottrell as Regional Vice President and General Manager for the Mid-Atlantic region.  Cottrell has over two decades of industry experience and was previously Executive Vice President at i3 Clinical Development Services and at inVentiv Clinical Solutions, where he spearheaded dramatic increases in sales and market share in clinical development and resourcing services at both companies, as well as designing the models for their expansions into Europe, Latin America and Asia.  Although Cottrell's efforts will be focused in America's Mid-Atlantic region, covering an area from New York to Virginia, and having one of the largest concentrations of medical device, pharmaceutical, and biotech companies in the world, he has an inventive plan for growth that capitalizes on Maetrics' global structure.

Said Cottrell, "It is true that the opportunity for developing life sciences consulting opportunity in the Mid-Atlantic states is among the best in the world.  But at our level, no life sciences companies are regional anymore. By leveraging the opportunity in this region with Maetrics' global resources, one can truly magnify the results."

According to Hassenplug, it was Cottrell's inventive regional targeting combined with his global outlook that brought him to the Maetrics team.

Said Hassenplug, "Although it might be a cliche, but we truly need to think outside the box in order to build on the double digit growth that Maetrics has experienced during each of the last three years.  Cottrell's strategy goes well beyond the traditional connections and contacts model and creates global relationships that will magnify our clients' growth as it will ours."
