Lynn Allen has been promoted to director, Business Development - Western U.S. Region & Europe at DPT Laboratories. In her new role, Ms. Allen will be responsible for leading a team of business development professionals in pursuit of new business opportunities in the western region of the U.S. and Europe. She  joined DPT in 2005 as a Business Development manager.
 
"Throughout her career at DPT, Lynn has proven to be a superior business development professional. She has consistently provided her customers with innovative approaches to meet their development and manufacturing goals," said Paul Josephs, vice president of sales and marketing. "Based on her success throughout her career at DPT, I am confident she will be successful in her new role leading one of our business development teams."
 
In addition, JJ Feik has assumed the role of senior director, Business Development - Eastern U.S. Region. These moves constitute a restructuring of DPT's Business Development team in response to the rapidly expanding needs of its customers, its increased services portfolio and the more complex structure of the marketpace, according to a company statement. "The sales team restructure helps ensure that we're able to manage our growth and better serve our customers' complex needs," Mr. Josephs remarked.

Mr. Feik was promoted to the role of senior director, Business Development in June 2010 after a successful role as director of Marketing. A DPT statement describes him as "a catalyst in improving key processes and business development effectiveness," and Mr. Josephs noted, "Lynn and JJ's leadership will be critical in helping us develop solutions and solidifying ourselves as the dominant player in the semi-solid and liquids marketplace."
