Roberto Costillas, from Junior PM to CEO
Roberto Costillas is CEO & Founder of Fertypharm, but before getting there, he has hardened himself as a professional in a brilliant career full of exciting challenges and also, why not, some frustrations.
Starting as a Junior Product Manager, over the years he came to lead the commercial network of Lacer, an iconic brand of the pharmacy channel. Later he would also manage sales in Salvat, who has not healed a wound with Cristalmina as a child? Or the address of the UN España de Ordesa, another historical laboratory and benchmark in child nutrition.
After this experience, mainly in a pharmaceutical family business, he decided to start his own project, back in 2015 and founded, together with other partners, Fertypharm, the first pharmaceutical laboratory 100% focused on solving fertility problems. From there, the rest is history, a reference brand for assisted reproduction centers in Spain and an international sales network that distributes its products in 10 countries and growing.
With Roberto we talked about the beginnings in the pharmaceutical industry, reflections on emerging talent, the involvement in sales of the Product Manager or starting a project from scratch.

Cristina Kiskeri, Head of Talent and Culture at Ferrer
Cristina Kiskeri is a journalist by training but has dedicated her professional career to the People area. After a 7-year period at FMCG, specifically at Danone, today he is Head of Talent & Culture at Ferrer, considered one of the giants in the PHARMA sector in Spain with more than 1,700 employees.
Today on everyone's lips: "the cultural transformation of the pharmaceutical industry", for Ferrer it was an absolute priority back in 2018, in a pre-pandemic world it was already clear that a company without purpose does not advance or impact the world.
The road has been long, but it has paid off. The result is collaborators who are absolutely committed to the project.
Thanks to this focus, Ferrer has been the first pharmaceutical laboratory in Spain to achieve B Corp certification. Recognition obtained only by those companies that can demonstrate a positive impact on society in a tangible way.
We also talked with Cristina about the Trust-Responsibility pairing when dealing with her collaborators and how what they call “triple impact” leadership allows having leaders who take care of their personal development, that of their teams and their return to society.
