Singing GlycoSyn's song stateside

Richard Lauricella: GlycoSyn's
US-based Business Development Manager.

Holding certification in Medical Laboratory Techniques from Swinburne University of Technology and a Bachelor of Science from Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology, Richard has an extensive technical and research-based background within the biotech and pharmaceutical industries, as well as academic and government research institutes.

This background, along with his ongoing interest in applied research and development, particularly in the areas of drug discovery, vaccines, therapeutics and diagnostics development, makes his appointment a perfect fit for GlycoSyn, according to General Manager Paul Benjes.

“Richard’s extensive experience has enabled him to gain entry into an array of key US companies and research institutions and successfully establish relationships essential for our long-term business success.”

Lauricella moved from Australia to the United States in 1995 and now lives with his family in Raleigh, North Carolina, where he runs his own business, Global Synthesis Solutions Inc. It was in this capacity that he was first referred to GlycoSyn, leading to his role promoting the GlycoSyn brand and capabilities.

“This is one of the reasons I wanted to become involved — GlycoSyn’s world-class capabilities are largely unsung at present and I want the world to know a lot more about them."
