Albert Sebag
Albert Sebag is Founder and CEO of Guidepoint, a leader and pioneer in the expert network industry. Since its founding and under his leadership, Guidepoint has grown exponentially, from a small start-up to a well-established, worldwide company that services over 1000 institutional and corporate clients. Prior to launching Guidepoint, Albert completed a J.D. from Boston College Law School following his Ph.D. in Organic Chemistry from Northeastern University and scientific research at MIT. After graduate school, he joined the law firm of Kenyon and Kenyon and began his career as a patent litigator, where he advised generic pharmaceutical companies in biotechnology and intellectual property litigation. Seeing an opportunity in the technology and information space, he left the legal profession and founded an oncology information company that matched cancer patients with a database of clinical trials, a forerunner to Guidepoint’s expert connection methodology. He also developed a deep Rolodex of the world’s leading physicians that later became the foundation of the consulting services for Guidepoint’s client base. Albert serves on the board of Repair the World, is a volunteer for AmeriCares, and also supports numerous healthcare and educational causes.
