Carmen Nitsche

I'm Carmen Nitsche

I am a chemist who started as a chemical information professional at Nalco Chemical Company. I have spent much of my career in business development, database operations and corporate development for publishers, database producers and scientific software companies serving the pharmaceuticals, chemicals and academic markets. Throughout this time, I have developed and executed on business unit strategies, managed partner relationships with C-level executives, established and managed extensive alliance partner networks, carried out numerous merger & acquisition evaluations and negotiations, and, most recently, run a U.S. subsidiary for a UK science charity. I am a member the American Chemical Society (ACS), the ACS - Division of Chemical Health & Safety (DCHAS), the ACS - Chemical Information Division (CINF), where I was awarded the 2022 Val Metanomski Meritorious Service Award, and Sigma Xi. I have spoken at ACS, Bio-IT, PAG, and Pistoia Alliance conferences and events, and I serve as a member of the BindingDB Scientific Advisory Board.

New Connections. New Directions.
