About Andrew B. Harmon

I work at the intersection of capital, policy, and capacity, helping organizations accelerate innovation. I focus on translating data-driven insight into practical direction, linking strategic decision-making with scientific progress to advance market readiness, technology adoption, and sustainable growth.I’ve worked with governments, investors, and companies to build innovation ecosystems and move high-impact projects forward, notably in emerging markets such as the Middle East. This has included designing health-sector initiatives, technology and development roadmaps, and funding and governance approaches that mobilize investment and enable innovation at scale.My experience spans the life-sciences spectrum — from advanced therapies such as cell- and gene-based platforms and microbiome-based therapeutics to next-generation manufacturing, precision diagnostics, digital health, and large-scale genomics initiatives tied to national health priorities.This breadth gives me the perspective to connect capital markets, regulatory frameworks, and operational capacity so organizations can navigate uncertainty and capture new growth opportunities.
