Apr 29 2011
Lord Drayson (pictured right) was awarded the BioIndustry Association (BIA) Award for Lifetime Achievement at the BIA’s Annual Gala Dinner held at the Natural History Museum on January 27. The award is in recognition of Lord Drayson’s significant contribution to the sector most recently until May 2010 as Science Minister, and previously as a co-founder of successful biotech company PowderJect Pharmaceuticals.
Tim Edwards, BIA Chairman, said: “We are delighted to present the award to Lord Drayson. His period as a Minister was marked by the commitment and energy he brought to the role, combined with his previous experience as CEO of an innovative biotech company. Lord Drayson is one of the UK’s successful biotech entrepreneurs – he started, built and sold a company – the goal of many of our members. His work in establishing the Office for Life Sciences is also a major accomplishment: the OLS continues to be a significant forum for industry to engage directly with key contacts within government.”
