CDD Welcomes Andrea Barry as Senior Director of Business Development

BURLINGAME, Calif., April 1 /PRNewswire/ -- Today, Collaborative Drug Discovery (CDD) brings Andrea Barry on board to spearhead an initiative to expand into the pharmaceuticals market, building on widespread acceptance of CDD's platform among academic and biotech researchers.

Andrea Barry was the Director of North American Sales for SciTegic prior to its merger with Accelrys, Inc. Her team was responsible for 2/3 of the global revenue for the company.  

"Andrea has proven herself to be game-changer," said Barry Bunin, CEO of CDD. "She brought significant growth to MDL, SciTegic and Accelrys – the powerhouses of traditional software tools in the commercial market – so we are confident that she will successfully translate our web-based collaborative approach to our growing number of large pharmaceutical customers."

Bunin continues:  "We're as interested in Andrea's ability to develop a community and to strengthen a revolutionary brand as in her skills as a revenue builder.  We welcome her to the team and look forward to building new commercial relationships together."

Andrea Barry commented, "It's my privilege to join the CDD team at this exciting point in the company history.  Great technology, a superior team of technical, scientific and business experts, and a culture that drives and thrives on collaboration: these are just a few of the important reasons I believe in CDD and where it's headed."
