Experienced Radiopharmaceutical Executive Brings Decades of Leadership in Operations, Capital Strategy, Commercialization, and Business Growth

PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 18, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Orchestra Life Sciences, a technical consultancy specializing in advanced therapy manufacturing solutions, today announced the appointment of Charles Conroy, RPh, MBA, as Chief Operating Officer.

Orchestra Life Sciences appoints former Nucleus RadioPharma founder and CEO Charles Conroy as Chief Operating Officer

Conroy brings more than 25 years of leadership experience across the radiopharmaceutical, pharmaceutical, and healthcare sectors. Throughout his career, he has built and scaled life sciences companies, led complex operations and capital strategy, and strengthened regulatory and quality infrastructure.

Conroy founded and served as CEO of Nucleus RadioPharma, where he led a $72 million Series A financing, and developed multi-site manufacturing infrastructure supporting clinical and commercial readiness. Previously, as President and CEO of ARTMS Products, Conroy led the strategic repositioning and commercialization of the radioisotope production company, growing its enterprise value from $3 million to $82 million. Earlier in his career, he directed a 51-site radiopharmacy operation with more than 800 employees at Jubilant Pharma.

“Charles has spent his career making the same complex operational and capital decisions that many of our clients are navigating today,” said Emilie Pelletier, Co-Founder and CEO of Orchestra Life Sciences. “That operator perspective will be incredibly valuable as we continue helping clients translate ambitious development strategies into facilities, operations, and organizations that are ready to deliver therapies to patients.”

As Chief Operating Officer, Conroy will bring a seasoned perspective to the decisions that sit between technical strategy and successful commercialization. Having built a radiopharmaceutical CDMO, led multi-site GMP operations, and managed capital allocation through periods of rapid growth, he understands how facility investments, operating models, financing, and commercialization strategy need to work together. His experience will help Orchestra pressure-test those decisions earlier, strengthen how projects move from planning into execution, and give clients more actionable guidance as they build organizations and infrastructure designed to scale.

“Orchestra has built a differentiated model by combining deep technical expertise with the ability to execute alongside clients,” said Conroy. “My goal is to help Orchestra identify challenges earlier, connect technical decisions to long-term business needs, and give clients practical guidance that helps them build programs and organizations that can support long term growth.”

This appointment comes as Orchestra continues to expand its global team and capabilities across radiopharmaceuticals, cell and gene therapy, biologics, and other complex biopharmaceutical programs. The company partners with organizations across the development and manufacturing lifecycle, providing support from business strategy and early project planning through engineering, capital project execution, regulatory and quality readiness, commissioning and qualification, and operational startup.

Saledock Gives Celerant ONE Retailers One Place to Market, Message and Manage Every Customer Conversation

Published

CES gives UK retailers a central marketing hub connected to live sales data.

KINGSTON UPON HULL, England, Nov. 10, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Saledock, a Celerant company, today launched Customer Engagement Suite (CES) for Celerant ONE, giving UK retailers a central hub for email marketing, SMS, social media, reputation management and every customer conversation, from website live chat to WhatsApp messages.

Because CES connects in real time to Celerant ONE’s ePOS and eCommerce, retailers can automate targeted, personalised messages based on what customers do in-store and online, using the customer, sales, and product information already in their system.

Marketing That Knows What Your Customers Bought

Most independent retailers manage customer communication across a patchwork of tools: one for email, another for text messages, a social media scheduler, review sites, a WhatsApp inbox and a separate live chat on their website. None of those tools know what a customer bought last week, so campaigns stay generic and staff waste time exporting lists and copying product details between systems.

CES closes that gap. It sits inside Celerant ONE and draws directly on the data retailers already have, including customer records, in-store and online sales history, and product images and information. The result is marketing that reflects real buying behaviour, built and sent from the same platform the retailer uses to run the shop.

How It Works

Retailers can set up automated workflows triggered by what happens at the till or on their website, and get as creative as they like. A workflow might thank a customer after their first purchase, follow up with shoppers who bought a particular brand or category, or win back customers who haven’t visited in a while, by email or SMS. Once it’s set, it runs in the background.

For retailers who don’t want to build workflows from scratch, a built-in AI agent can create them, so even a small team can put automated marketing to work.

Building a campaign is faster too. Product images and descriptions come straight from Celerant ONE, so there’s no need to recreate content that already exists in the catalogue.

With CES, Celerant ONE retailers can:

Automate email and SMS campaigns based on in-store and online purchase activityLet the built-in AI agent build workflows for themAnswer website live chat and WhatsApp messages from a single inboxSchedule posts and engage with followers across Facebook, Instagram, and their other social channelsMonitor and respond to customer reviews to protect their reputationReduce the number of separate marketing and messaging tools they pay for and manage

“Retailers already own their most valuable marketing asset, which is their customer and sales data,” said Michele Salerno, Chief Growth Officer at Celerant Technology. “The problem is that data usually sits in one system while their email, texts, reviews, and social media live somewhere else. CES puts all of it in one place and connects it to every sale, so a retailer can send a message that’s actually relevant to that customer without exporting a list or logging into a handful of different tools.”

“Running a shop leaves very little time for marketing, and jumping between different apps to do it doesn’t help,” said Layla Gladwin, Managing Director of Saledock. “With CES, everything a retailer needs to talk to their customers is inside Celerant ONE and connected to what’s happening at the till and online. Set up a workflow once, or let the AI agent build it for you, and it keeps working while you get on with serving customers.”

Availability

Customer Engagement Suite is available now as an optional add-on for Celerant ONE retailers. Existing Celerant ONE retailers can contact their Saledock account representative to get started. Retailers considering new ePOS and eCommerce software can request a Celerant ONE demonstration to see CES and the complete platform at [https://www.saledock.com/customer-enagagement-suite/]
