took charge of our Sales and Business Development function. For more than two decades, as the company evolved into Cambridge Innovation Institute (CII), Angie brought her skills for training, motivating and selling to the department, as well as providing a creative, problem-solving approach to the overall business. We were all shocked and brokenhearted when Angie unexpectedly passed away in August 2022. Angie was more than just a long-term colleague. She was a powerful mentor for many within and outside the company, a dedicated wife and mother and an excellent example of how one person can make a positive impact in the lives of many others. Any number of times recently, when the company has faced challenges, one of the questions that has been raised, spoken or not, has been “what would Angie suggest”. She maintains a strong place in our hearts and in our memory, and she will continue to be deeply missed.</p></div></div></div><hr /> <div class="modal fade" id="myModal" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-labelledby="myModalLabel"><div class="modal-dialog" role="document"><div class="modal-content"><div class="modal-body"><button type="button" class="close" data-dismiss="modal" aria-label="Close"><span aria-hidden="true">×</span></button><div id="carousel-modal" class="carousel slide" data-interval="false" data-ride="carousel"> <div class="carousel-inner" role="listbox"><div class="item active" id="phillips-kuhl"><div class="hidden-div"><div class="row"><div class="col-sm-3"><img src="/images/librariesprovider20/executive-team/phillips-kuhl.jpg?sfvrsn=d10b72ad_3" class="imageResize" alt="Phillips Kuhl, MBA" /></div><br class="hidden-sm hidden-md hidden-lg" /><div class="col-sm-9"><div class="bio-text"><p><b>Phillips Kuhl, MBA</b><br />Chief Executive Officer</p><p>Phillips co-founded Cambridge Healthtech Institute (CHI) in 1992 with the aim of creating a company focused on organizing the best life sciences and biomedical R&D conferences.
