BOSTON - June 23, 2021 - PRLog -- Venture Forward is proud to welcome Kim Barry as Senior Director of Operations. Barry, a 15-year veteran in life sciences research, lab management, and operations will oversee the operations and management of lab design, construction management, and relocations for Venture Forward's early-stage biotech and life sciences clients.

"We're thrilled Kim is joining our team," said Venture Forward CEO, Kyle Abbott. "Her range of industry experience and her background are timely assets to our rapidly growing firm. Not only does she have an insider's understanding of the unique challenges facing life science facilities, she's also a long-time member of the Boston area's booming biotech community. Her energy and problem-solving abilities mean we can serve our expanding list of partners with the same Make It Happen approach."

Venture Forward has staked a deep claim in Greater Boston's biotech and lifesciences industry, becoming the top laboratory support consultants for operations from startup and early-stage to established enterprises. Its highly capable team shares a broad network, depth of experience and top-shelf expertise in a field that depends specifically on smooth operations and management for success.

"Our partners depend on us to handle their physical and managerial needs so their scientists have the space, technology and focus to innovate, investigate, and thrive," said Abbott. "Kim's got a terrific track record as far as planning and operations in her prior roles. She brings special acumen to early-stage organizations, helping us serve a critical niche in Boston's biotech sector."

Barry's career in life sciences spans research, management, and operations, including substantial bench experience before she shifted to operations. She has a diverse background in R&D, GMP, and CROs, and has been responsible for analytical development, quality control and project management. She also has extensive familiarity with specialized equipment, procurement processes, successful audit reviews, and data analysis; has authored numerous Standard Operating Procedures and protocols; and implemented software for asset management and work order programs. As well as managing day-to-day operations of approximately 85,000 square feet of office/lab/GMP manufacturing facilities, she led the search for two separate sites, negotiating and signing both leases, just a month apart. Managing the design and construction of both facilities, she completed these projects within months of each other.
