Brok Weichbrodt

Previously the Director of Commercial Operations at Catalent, Weichbrodt has over 17 years of industry experience and will oversee a number of departments at Genezen including manufacturing, facilities maintenance and calibration, validation, EHS, supply chain, and capital projects. Brok is responsible for the completion of phase 1 of our capital expansion project which encompasses the construction of a new 25,000 sq. ft. facility, the first phase in an overall 75,000 sq. ft. facility expansion. Brok aims to further improve Genezen’s already high-quality standards through the creation of new teams and processes, and continue to foster an environment that values communication, problem-solving, and diversity.

Why Genezen? I have had the opportunity to work extensively in the drug product field, and working in Gene and Cell Therapy is an opportunity to not just address symptoms, but to help cure disease. At Genezen I get to participate in the creation of something truly special.

My greatest passion: I care most about people and doing the right thing. For me, life is about relationships and taking care of each other. “Helping people get better” is about our families, friends and colleagues as well as our patients. It applies to big efforts like assisting with the development and manufacture of lentiviral vector therapies, and small everyday efforts, like being kind and coaching those around us to help them achieve more than they thought possible.
