About Sarjan Shah
As COO at Auritec, I lead cross-functional teams advancing long-acting drug delivery programs from concept to clinic. Our portfolio spans neurology, cardiovascular disease, immunology, and infectious diseases — supported by NIH funding, deep formulation expertise, and strong regulatory execution.I serve as Principal Investigator on multiple NIH-funded, IND-enabling projects and have led IND submissions for first-in-human trials — helping advance several sustained-release candidates into clinical development. I was also the key project management lead for two first-in-human trials. I work across R&D, regulatory, business, intellectual property, and administrative functions to bridge scientific innovation with clinical and commercial strategy.Previously, I advised global life science clients on market access and reimbursement. I hold an MBS from Keck Graduate Institute and a Bachelor\'s in Biotechnology Engineering from the University of Mumbai.Outside the boardroom, I bring the same mindset to life — constantly learning, optimizing, and building. Whether it’s fitness, nutrition, or value investing, I’m energized by thoughtful systems and long-term growth. I believe in leading with empathy, executing with precision, and finding calm in complexity.
