Verenium announced today that Brian Carter, an enzyme industry veteran, has been appointed as its Vice President of Grain Processing.
Carter joined the company in September 2012 as Vice President, Business Development. Prior to Verenium, Mr. Carter spent nearly 20 years at Genencor, now part of DuPont Industrial Biosciences. He held a variety of senior leadership roles at Genecor in business development and general management.
Carter’s appointment is the latest in a series of organizational enhancements Verenium has made to expand its presence in the grain processing industry; Kulinda Davis, Ph.D., has assumed the role of Director, Business Strategy and Marketing, focused on supporting further penetration of the U.S. market, commercializing new enzyme products, and expanding Verenium’s international presence in grain processing. The company has also made key hires in sales, field technical support, and in-house customer technical support.
Janet Roemer, Verenium’s COO, commented, “Brian and Kulinda’s appointments are important steps in building a world class team to support our customers in the U.S. corn ethanol market and in growing our presence in the global grain processing industry.”
