About Joe Zenkus
As the Senior Vice President of Business Development and Strategic Alliances at Sarepta Therapeutics, I lead a team of experts who source, evaluate, and negotiate strategic partnerships and collaborations that advance our mission of delivering life-changing precision genetic medicine for rare diseases. With over 20 years of experience in the health care and biotech industries, I have a proven track record of creating value for patients, partners, and shareholders through successful deal-making and integration; working across domestic and international markets.I joined Sarepta in 2019, bringing with me a strong background in finance, strategy, and market assessment, as well as a clinical and scientific understanding of the therapeutic areas I work in. Previously, I held senior roles at Pfizer, Mylan, and Schering-Plough (Merck), where I executed and integrated multiple acquisitions, licensing agreements, and joint ventures. I am passionate about driving innovation and growth in the biotech sector, leveraging my network and expertise, and collaborating with diverse and talented teams.
