eXmoor Pharma has appointed Manuel Balbuena as Chief Commercial Officer as the company continues to build its position as an integrated cell and gene therapy CDMO, supporting clients across complex and emerging modalities.

Manuel brings more than 15 years of commercial leadership experience in the life sciences sector, including seven years in the cell and gene therapy and biologics CDMO industry. He joins eXmoor Pharma from AGC Biologics, where he held senior commercial roles across Europe and built a strong track record in global business development, strategic account growth and international market expansion.

His deep experience within the cell and gene therapy and biologics CDMO sector strengthens our ability to partner with global clients across a range of complex modalities. We are focused on building long-term strategic relationships and delivering commercial and operational excellence, and Manuel’s leadership will be central to that ambition.”
