Andreas Scherer — CEO
I BUILD AND REFINE COMPANIES While the businesses and technologies I focus on can be complex, my approach to growth and success is straightforward. My team is my primary focus. A well-mentored and well-rewarded team has the capacity to take care of our customers' needs. This, in turn, creates shareholder value. I am a firm believer in equity incentives for all team members, resulting in a sense of ownership and belonging. My career has involved executive leadership roles in Fortune 500 companies as well as running private businesses. This created a diverse background in Strategy, Corporate Governance, Product Development, as well as extensive experience in operating functions such as Sales, Marketing, Engineering, Services, and Business Operations. My proven business acumen and ability to drive consistent change deliver bottom-line results. Golden Helix was repeatedly recognized on the Inc. 5000 list as one of the fastest-growing private companies in the US. I am regularly quoted by media outlets such as Forbes and E-Commerce Times on current business and technology news. I am an international speaker on topics such as Precision Medicine, as well as the author of a prize-winning business book, "Be Fast Or Be Gone". In my free time, I love riding motorcycles and playing golf. In the winter, I enjoy skiing.
