Hiroto Bando assumes this new role in addition to his current leadership positions at Minaris. He has served as General Manager, Regenerative Medicine Business Unit of Resonac Corporation, since January 2022. He also holds the positions of President and CEO of Minaris Regenerative Medicine Co., Ltd. (Japan) and Minaris Regenerative Medicine, LLC (United States). This unified leadership will strengthen Minaris as a global organization. Day-to-day operations at the European facilities will continue to be led by Renate Sporrer, Chief Operating Officer, Minaris Regenerative Medicine GmbH.

“I look forward to working closely with Renate and to strengthening collaboration between our three global regions. In Europe, we are particularly excited about our recent expansion to add a new facility in Munich, Germany. The new manufacturing site will provide additional clean room capacity for cell and gene therapies beginning in 2024,” said Hiroto Bando.

In the position of CEO of the European operations, Hiroto will replace Dusan Kosijer who has served as CEO for the region since January 2021 and prior to that as Chief Financial Officer of Minaris Regenerative Medicine GmbH since 2016.
