    Avesta has built an impressive career in the U.S. life science industry, with a network and cross-cultural reach that few can match. As CEO of Soraya Scientific, he brings an insider’s understanding of American, European, and Middle Eastern business cultures, and the rare ability to navigate commercial relationships across all three.

    His long tenure at Calibre Scientific took him through multiple mergers and acquisitions and senior roles spanning General Manager to Vice President of Revenue, Americas. Along the way, he built a substantial network of distributors and suppliers across the life science ecosystem, and developed hands-on expertise in integrating acquired companies, scaling commercial operations, and managing complex international partnerships. Earlier roles at Edge BioSystems and in research environments at the University of Miami and the Henry M.

His combination of integration experience through Calibre Scientific’s M&A arc, distributor networks spanning the life science ecosystem, and cultural fluency across American, European, and Middle Eastern markets is a rare fit for the way Nordic diagnostics and medtech companies actually cross into the U.S.
