New CCO Joins as Cytosurge Engages in Key Scientific Events Across the USA and Beyond
ZURICH, Switzerland, April 09, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Cytosurge AG, a leading biotech company in single-cell manipulation and cell engineering solutions, announces the appointment of Magid Haddouchi, PhD, as its new Chief Commercial Officer (CCO), effective as of April 1, 2025. The company will also be present at several international scientific events during the first half of 2025.
Dr. Haddouchi brings over 15 years of international experience in diagnostics, life sciences, and medical devices. Prior to joining Cytosurge, he served as CCO at VirtaMed, spearheading global commercial strategies that delivered strong market growth, launched innovative offerings, and built trusted partnerships across scientific and clinical communities. At Cytosurge, he will lead the company’s commercial growth strategy, strengthen customer engagement, and scale strategic partnerships across the academic, biotech, and pharmaceutical sectors.
“Cytosurge is building a strong reputation for innovation in single-cell research and precision genome engineering,” said Dr. Haddouchi. “I’m honored to join this exceptional team to help more scientists and industry partners unlock the power of FluidFM technology. From generating high-quality, genetically engineered cell lines to enabling non-destructive single-cell transcriptomics, Cytosurge is pushing the boundaries of what’s possible in cellular biology.”
“On behalf of everyone at Cytosurge and the entire Board, we’re thrilled to welcome Magid as we accelerate our commercial expansion,” says Simon Egli, CEO of Cytosurge. His leadership and commercial expertise will support our mission to scale globally and deliver high-impact solutions to researchers and innovators in both academia and industry.”
Dr. Haddouchi will represent Cytosurge at his first event in this role—the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) Annual Meeting in Chicago later this month.
