During a distinguished career with global orthopedic device manufacturer Stryker Corporation, Patrick worked at three divisions, culminating in his appointment as Vice President of Global Sales and Marketing for Stryker Biotech. During his career at Stryker he participated in numerous M&A and JV negotiations. In 2002, Patrick left Stryker to found a group of companies in the oil and gas industry, which he led as CEO through exit in 2009 to Cameron International at best-in-industry multiples. Subsequent to this exit, he held a number of non-executive board positions in Europe highlighted by his work guiding the sale of Orthomimetics Ltd., an orthopedic medical technology company, to Tigenix NV at one of the most successful small-cap valuations worldwide in the period. Patrick brings the valuable perspective of having sat on both sides of the negotiating table, allowing him unique insight and an informed ability to navigate the deal process.
