Junicon Hires LoPresti as MD in Japan

Juniper Consulting Group (Junicon) has appointed Michael LoPresti as Managing Director of its Tokyo-based healthcare marketing research and consulting company Junicon K.K.

Junicon provides customized research-based consulting for global healthcare markets, and was launched in Japan in 1992 and rolled out globally in 2002.

LoPresti (pictured) joins with a decade of experience providing marketing and market access research services in Japan. Since 2010 he has run his own research firm, Goddard Health, in Tokyo, and this company's services will be integrated into the Junicon K.K. offering. Prior to this, LoPresti worked for TM Marketing and at Infoplan (now part of Kantar).

In his new role, he replaces President and founder Rob Claar, who takes on a new position as President of the newly established Vorpal Technologies K.K.; a related company supporting pharmaceutical and medical device companies with regulatory and pricing submissions.

Claar comments: 'Michael joins Junicon at a key moment in our regional growth. His broad experience and specific expertise enable Junicon to offer a more comprehensive portfolio of services to our global partners.'
