2018
Crossing pathways

The reunion of two professionals with very different backgrounds.

Arnaud Bonnaffoux, aeronautical engineer and Ph.D. in systems biology. Sami Bou-Antoun, a businessman by nature, physician, and Ph.D. in immunology from Boston University, USA. Their destinies crossed with a common goal: by combining the power of the latest technologies and always putting human intelligence at the center of research, to change the paradigm of drug development. Arnaud’s background in the aerospace field and Sami’s in research and development made two worlds that never communicated before meeting to the benefit of humanity.
