Prior to joining the company, Jones spent five years building IntrinsiQ Research into the dominant leader in information management for the oncology market. As the Executive Vice President, he and his partners built the software applications that enabled U.S.-based oncologists to optimally treat their patients and allowed the bio-pharmaceutical industry to analyze real-time oncology usage data to thoroughly understand their products. Previously, Jones led Datamonitor's Healthcare practice as the Global Managing Director. In addition to many corporate roles, Jones participated frequently on both syndicated and custom engagements in areas such as product portfolio optimization, acquisition strategies, field force structure, market assessments, product launch strategy and various eHealth issues.
Accuity has also announced the appointment of Richard Antoneck as Chief Financial Officer. Antoneck, previously the Senior Vice President of Financial Operations at SourceMedia, has over 14 years of experience within the financial industry.
