“I am particularly looking forward to working with InstantScripts co-founder Dr Asher Freilich, a natural entrepreneur and healthcare thought leader.”

Dr Freilich added: “We are thrilled to welcome Richard to the InstantScripts leadership team. With Richard at the helm leading all areas of our operations, InstantScripts will accelerate its path of fast and sustained growth.”

The new hire adds to InstantScripts’ solid past 12-months, during which the health tech platform recorded over 1000 per cent revenue growth and scored first and second rankings in the SmartCompany Smart50 Awards and the AFR Fast Starters List, respectively.
