Directorate Change
ValiRx plc (the "Company") (AIM: VAL), a life sciences company
focusing on early-stage cancer therapeutics and women's health,
announces the resignation of Stella Panu as a Non-Executive
Director of the Company, effective from 15 April 2024.
Following the fundraise in January 2024, Stella has decided to
step down from the Board of ValiRx to concentrate on her other
commitments. Stella has agreed to a 3-month handover period to
allow sufficient time for the Board to identify an appropriate
replacement and ensure a smooth transition of responsibilities.
During Stella's tenure as a Non-Executive Director, she has made
significant contributions to the development of the strategy and
the changes required to ensure the Company achieves its longer-term
growth goals. Stella's expertise and guidance have been invaluable,
and the Company would like to express its gratitude for her
dedicated service.
With Stella's support, the Company will be working diligently to
identify a suitable candidate to fill the vacancy created by her
departure. In particular, the Board will be seeking candidates with
a background in early-stage pharmaceutical development, aligning
with our strategic focus. The Board and management are committed to
ensuring a seamless transition and will work closely with Stella to
facilitate a comprehensive handover of duties.
Kevin Cox, Chairman of ValiRx commented "I would very much like
to extend my sincere appreciation to Stella for her invaluable
contributions to ValiRx over the past years. Her knowledge and
skills have been instrumental in the successful acquisition of
Imagen Therapeutics assets, which have provided a significant
milestone in the development of Inaphaea Biolabs. Her presence on
the Board and guidance to me will be greatly missed, and I wish her
continued success in future endeavours."
The Directors of the Company take responsibility for this
announcement.
