Xavier Morge
CEO, PharmD, MBA

After a Doctorate in pharmacy, Xavier Morge started his career in 1998 as a Researcher-Engineer at CEA.
In parallel with his work, he co-founded SPI-Bio in 1991. After completing training in business management, he took over the general management of the company in 1996. He was confirmed in this role when the company joined Bertin Technologies in 2004. Within the group, Xavier was the architect of the development of the company, which combined organic growth and strategic acquisitions, leading to the creation of Bertin Pharma in 2010.

When the company had grown to have a workforce of around fifty, Xavier joined Oncodesign when it acquired Bertin. He then led the business development and marketing activities of Oncodesign. He was very active in the R&D ecosystem, participating in the creation of Afssi, of which he became President. He is also a Member of the Academy of Pharmacy.
