Ex-Kantar Health Global CEO Cooke to Advise Apollo

Former Kantar Health Global CEO Lynnette Cooke has joined the Strategic Advisory Board of Apollo Intelligence, which provides data and insights to the healthcare and life science industries.

Investment firm Saroras Private Capital founded Apollo in 2019 after acquiring market intelligence firm InCrowd, and then healthcare data collection and custom survey solutions provider SHG (Survey Healthcare Global). Apollo now provides access to two million healthcare stakeholders worldwide - including physicians, patients, caregivers and allied healthcare professionals - and employs more than 250 staff. Last year it was acquired by private equity firm Frazier Healthcare Partners.

Cooke (pictured) brings 24 years of experience from Kantar Health (now known as Cerner Enviza), the last thirteen spent as Global CEO. During her time with the business, she served as CEO of the Ziment Group (acquired by Kantar's former owner WPP in 2005 and then comprising All Global, Consumer Health Sciences and Ziment Custom). In addition, Cooke currently serves on the Board of life science insights management platform Within3, and she was previously an Assistant Professor at the Eli Board College of Business at Michigan State University, teaching as part of the Master of Market Research curriculum.

Daniel Fitzgerald, President and CEO of Apollo Intelligence, comments: 'Lynnette's deep market insights experience and extensive operating success, as well as her commitment to leading transformative change in our industry, make her an ideal Apollo advisor. I value her wisdom and insight as an industry leader. She also brings a fresh perspective to our team'.
