This role calls for a strategic leader with a deep understanding of cardiovascular medical devices, biomedical research, and a robust corporate network to lead ArtiFex in pioneering this essential innovation.

The Innovation

ArtiFex is developing a revolutionary artificial vascular graft that addresses significant clinical needs in coronary and peripheral bypass surgery. The ArtiFex Vascular Graft offers a patented, cellulose-coated solution designed to be a superior, cost-effective alternative, aiming for better outcomes across all key clinical areas.

Your Role As CEO

Core Responsibilities Include

  1. Fundraising for Clinical Trials: Lead targeted fundraising efforts to secure capital for First-In-Human (FIH) trials, critical to demonstrating the clinical safety and efficacy of the ArtiFex Vascular Graft.
  2. Strategic Networking and Partnerships: Leverage your corporate network in cardiovascular medical devices to build strategic alliances, with a focus on both financial backing and clinical validation.
  3. Clinical and Research Expertise: Utilize your background in biomedical sciences to work closely with research teams, bridging the worlds of R&D and clinical application.
  4. Engagement with Cardiovascular Surgeons: Cultivate relationships with leading thoracic and cardiovascular surgeons to foster early support, feedback, and advocacy for ArtiFex's graft technology.
  5. Exit Strategy Development: Define and lead a roadmap that positions ArtiFex for a successful exit, including identifying potential acquirers and setting the stage for long-term company value.
Key Competencies

The ideal CEO for ArtiFex will bring a mix of scientific knowledge, entrepreneurial drive, fundraising experience and a vast professional network within the cardiovascular medical device field. Key qualifications include:

  1. Biomedical and Research Background: A strong foundation in biomedical sciences, enabling a unique understanding of the R&D process.
  2. Fundraising Expertise: Proven ability to raise capital for early-stage medical device trials, ideally with experience securing funds for First-In-Human studies.
  3. Corporate Network in Cardiovascular Devices: Established connections within the cardiovascular medical device industry, with the ability to leverage partnerships for strategic and clinical advancement.
  4. Clinical Relationships: A well-developed network with thoracic and cardiovascular surgeons, supporting clinical validation and early adoption.
  5. Exit Strategy Focus: Demonstrated skill in defining and executing strategies aimed at positioning early-stage ventures for acquisition or other exits.
Location: The ideal candidate will be based in Europe, preferably in close proximity to ArtiFex's headquarters in Vienna, Austria, to facilitate seamless leadership and collaboration.

Join ArtiFex and lead a venture positioned to transform vascular surgery with an innovative solution designed to enhance patient outcomes. We seek a CEO ready to drive forward a world-class medical breakthrough and lay the groundwork for ArtiFex's future success in the medical device industry.

The Opportunity

This is more than just a job—it's a chance to become a partner in a highly promising venture. Here's what we offer:
  1. Equity-Based Remuneration: Share in the success you help create.
  2. Cash Compensation: Linked to successful fundraising milestones.
  3. Co-Funding Opportunity: Invest alongside us.
  4. NLC Ecosystem Access: Leverage the expertise and network of NLC Venture Services.
  5. Strategic Support: Regular sparring sessions with your Venture Partner and collaboration with over 100 CEOs in our network.
Last but not least: As the CEO of this medtech venture, you will have the unique opportunity to lead a groundbreaking innovation from clinical validation to industry impact, working at the forefront of cardiovascular advancements to address pressing medical needs and shape the future of vascular surgery.
