ITI Scotland last week announced a new organizational structure “to better equip the company to meet its agreed strategic objectives.”
David Creed, CEO of ITI Techmedia and COO of ITI Scotland, has been appointed to the role of group chief executive of ITI Scotland.
In addition, Eleanor Mitchell, former acting CEO of ITI Life Sciences, has been appointed managing director of ITI Life Sciences; Terry Hurley, director of technology, markets, and programs at ITI Techmedia, will now become its managing director; and Chris Brown, formerly of the BOC Group, has been appointed as interim managing director of ITI Energy. All managing directors will report to Creed, ITI Scotland said.
In addition, ITI Scotland said that a group director of IP and commercialization will be appointed to implement group policy for the protection, management, and commercialization of intellectual assets. The group director will oversee these efforts for each of ITI’s three divisions: Energy, Life Sciences, and Techmedia.
ITI Scotland is a commercial organization focused on driving sustainable economic growth in Scotland through ownership of commercially targeted R&D programs.
