Former Nordion CEO Steve West has been appointed to the board of directors of TSO3, the Quebec City-based company announced Tuesday.
TSO3 (TSE: TOS) makes low-temperature sterilization technology for medical devices. Its president and CEO, Ric Rumble, said Mr. West’s more than 30 years in the health and life sciences sector will be valuable as the firm evaluates its U.S. listing options.
“He also has gained extensive global expertise from his tenure at Nordion, MDS and Unilever Canada, which we expect to help guide our fast-growing global business,” Mr. Rumble said in a statement.
