SKILLS
ABOUT IAN RENTSCH
I’m a commercially driven BioPharma executive with 25+ years of experience scaling RWE and rare disease ventures from early stage to global commercial success. As Chief Commercial Officer at Centogene and a senior leader at IQVIA, Aetion, and executive leader at Clinerion & Trinetx I’ve led organizations through complex growth inflection points—defining global GTM strategies, establishing pharma alliances, and building commercial teams across Europe, the US, and Asia.My track record includes launching multi million pharma partnerships, growing revenue by double digits, and creating high-impact RWE consortia like ROPAD at Centogene. I’ve led major P&L units, owned investor relationships, and navigated both organic and M&A-driven expansion. Whether repositioning a legacy business or scaling a digital health solution, I specialize in architecting growth and aligning commercial vision with execution.What drives me is building purpose-driven, commercially sustainable businesses that accelerate access to precision medicine. I lead with clarity, conviction, and a collaborative edge—cultivating cultures where data, talent, and market forces converge to unlock industry-first innovation. As a board advisor and frequent industry speaker, I help early- and growth-stage ventures sharpen their story and scale with intention.
