CEO of PHOENIX Zdravotnícke zásobovanie, BENU Slovensko, and EL PHARMA in Slovakia

Tomas Slechan

In today’s edition of Leadership Voices, meet Tomas Slechan, CEO for PHOENIX Zdravotnícke zásobovanie, a.s., BENU Slovensko a.s. and EL PHARMA, a.s – in Slovakia: 

“I have dedicated my professional life to healthcare – from building the first pharmacy chains in Czechia and Slovakia, to expanding into pharmaceutical wholesale, and finally creating the “youngest child,” EL PHARMA in Slovakia. I believe that patients in Slovakia deserve access to the same innovations available across Europe, and I put all my energy into making that possible.

Slovakia is a market with lots of local specificities. EL PHARMA provides pharmaceutical companies with local expertise in market access and thus enables innovation treatments to reach Slovak patients.

Tomas shared with us the values he upholds and carries throughout his leadership journey: 

“I strive to inspire my team through hard work and authenticity, and I take pride in being able to understand and connect different stakeholders toward a shared goal. “
