As CTO, Cameron will initially focus on the strategic expansion of Avanzanite’s footprint into 26 European countries, driving revenue growth for the current portfolio while also preparing for key new partnerships expected to materialize in 2025.

With over 25 years of experience in pharmaceutical operations, Mr. Cameron brings unparalleled expertise in global product distribution, regulatory compliance, and manufacturing of orphan medicines. His career spans leadership roles at some of the industry’s most innovative biopharmaceutical companies, including Genzyme (Sanofi), Synageva, and Amicus Therapeutics, where he was instrumental in launching more than 17 rare disease treatments.

Prior to joining Avanzanite, Cameron was Chief Operations Officer of Orphan Drug Consulting. Most recently in a corporate role, Mr. Cameron served as Senior Vice President of Technical Operations at Amicus Therapeutics, overseeing global product supply for small molecules, biologics, and gene therapies. Earlier in his career, he played a pivotal role at Genzyme, where he helped establish and scale supply chain operations across Europe and led global commercial supply efforts.

“We are thrilled to welcome Jason to our leadership team, which we proudly refer to as “Avanzanite’s Champions League,” said Adam Plich, Founder and CEO of Avanzanite. “Jason’s deep experience in global pharmaceutical operations, especially in rare disease markets, will be invaluable as we continue to expand our reach and deliver life-changing treatments to patients across Europe and beyond.” Plich continued, "Our long-term vision is to ensure that no patient is left behind when facing a rare disease, and Jason’s expertise and shared commitment to this mission will be instrumental in our success."

In his role, Cameron will oversee key operational functions, including supply chain management, manufacturing, quality assurance, regulatory compliance, and launch management. His leadership will ensure that Avanzanite can continue to provide timely, compliant, and high-quality product supply to patients across multiple regions while laying the groundwork for continued expansion into new markets.

"It’s an exciting opportunity to join Avanzanite and help realize its vision of improving access to orphan medicines for underserved patient populations," said Jason Cameron. "I look forward to working closely with the talented Avanzanite team to strengthen our operational capabilities and further our mission to make a lasting difference in the lives of rare disease patients." Cameron will be based in London, UK.

In 2024, Avanzanite continued its expansion in the European orphan drug market, reaching over 120 patients across 12 markets and generating revenue in six countries. With two authorized medicinal products in its portfolio, the Company is now poised to extend its presence to 26 European countries following the recent authorization of an orphan medicine for acanthamoeba keratitis.
