Aduro Clean Technologies has also added key members to its team in preparation for the upcoming demonstration and planned client trials. Joining as Senior Advisor Technical and Regulatory Affairs is Dr. Ian McLennan. Dr. McLennan has over 35 years of experience in the chemical industry and was one of the founders of Ecosynthetix (“ECO”), a TSX-listed biomaterials company. Ian was responsible for scaling up one of the technology platforms at Ecosynthetix and managed regulatory affairs at ECO for 18 years. Ian has managed R&D programs in the U.S., Canada, the Netherlands, and France. In addition, Ian has been involved in intellectual property development and raising funds for private technology companies. Aduro Clean Technologies is Ian’s fourth start-up company.
