J. Joseph Kim, Ph.D., President, Chief Executive Officer, Director at Inovio Pharmaceuticals
Joseph Kim was appointed President and CEO of Inovio Pharmaceuticals in June 2009. Dr. Kim co-founded VGX Pharmaceuticals, a synthetic vaccine company, in 2000 to develop intellectual property related to immunotherapeutics licensed from the University of Pennsylvania. He led the company for nine years and combined VGX with Inovio Biomedical in 2009 to form Inovio Pharmaceuticals.
Inovio is revolutionizing the fight against cancers and infectious diseases. Their strategy is to focus on our core expertise, conducting R&D and clinical development to achieve proof of principle of their SynCon® immunotherapy products, and engage with partners to complete late-stage clinical development and commercialization and, in some cases, advance early-stage programs. Inovio has forged partnerships with pharma companies, government agencies and leading academic institutions to support the development of DNA-based immunotherapies delivered via Inovio’s electroporation technology in many disease areas.
Learn about how these partnerships and collaborations were formed and the details behind them. Register today to hear Dr. Kim talk about partnerships with MedImmune, Roche, University of Pennsylvania, DARPA, GeneOne LifeScience, HIV Vaccine Trails Network, NIAID and many more.
