RE:President and CSO. Info for new investors Really like this section of the interview. In his own words "Sonas products are genuinely unique and have the potential to transform competitive markets. I am looking forward to the challenge of growing the business while continuing to produce innovative new products." More from our President & CEO Darren Rowles, who has 15 years experience in the diagnostic and nanoparticle industry, has been appointed to lead Sona through its next phase of development and beyond. We asked him about his life and career and what he has planned for Sona. What made you want to join Sona? I had been aware of Sonas work for a while and was really impressed; I could see the huge potential of its products. I thought this was a company I would like to work with. So, when the opportunity came up to actually work for Sona, I jumped at the chance. Youve worked in the diagnostic and nanoparticle industry for many years now, so in your opinion what makes Sona and its products different? This industry is crying out for new technology and innovations. There are very few new products that come to market and very few companies that can actually deliver on what they promise. Sona has new and unique products that are ready for the market. In fact, it is going to disrupt the market and provide something better than the competition. This is a company that can definitely deliver on its promises. And it will continue to innovate and provide new products to meet the demand in the years ahead. What really makes the company special is not our products but our people. Team Sona is more than just a buzzword, its an ethos that really means something. Sona would be nothing without the vision, expertise, passion and perseverance of its people. I know weve got something special that needs to be nurtured, and that is going to be a vital part of my role as CEO. What is your priority? Weve got huge plans for Sona but were going to take it one step at a time. The next two to three years is our main focus; we want to build a sustainable company. My immediate priority is to ensure the reverse takeover and stock listing is a success and that we achieve financial sustainability. Then I want us to focus on growth, through continual innovation, producing new products and entering new markets. I strongly believe in corporate social responsibility, and long term I want us to look at an educational outreach programme, bringing science to schools in our communities.
