FISHERS, IN, December 05, 2025 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Vic Simianu, MBA, founder, principal and chief executive officer of Sphinx Strategies, was selected by Marquis Who's Who for a prominent feature in the Chicago Edition of The Wall Street Journal, published on October 30, 2025.

Mr. Simianu is highly regarded as the founder, principal and CEO of Sphinx Strategies. He founded the company in 2015 and leads it by providing a range of optimization solutions focused on catalyzing growth for independent and chain pharmacies. Established to navigate the crossroads of innovative therapies, Sphinx Strategies is praised for transforming the pharmacy sector toward specialty and infusion therapies.

Among his responsibilities, Mr. Simianu focuses on operations and business development functions, including accreditation and vendor optimization strategies, to ensure that Sphinx Strategies' clientele achieves financial and operational excellence. As one of the few organizations focused on ongoing changes in health care, Sphinx Strategies supports pharmacies in adopting effective end-to-end workflows. Mr. Simianu and his team take great pride in their successes as their long-standing and growing clients achieve industry-leading patient outcomes nationwide.

Mr. Simianu demonstrates unwavering dedication to finding effective solutions, regardless of budget constraints, to advance his clients. He believes that excellence should be built from a solid foundation — like the Great Sphinx of Giza — carved from a single piece of stone. Accordingly, he prioritizes enhancing existing businesses without imposing unnecessary requirements or excessive costs, striving for budget-friendly solutions that improve clinical outcomes.

Earlier in his career, Mr. Simianu launched several startups before earning an MBA from the Kelley School of Business. Prior to launching Sphinx Strategies, he served as a corporate contracts manager at Baptist Health of South Florida and as a manager of special projects at Premier's Specialty Pharmacy Operation in Fort Lauderdale. He transitioned into management after working as an operations analyst at Premier Purchasing Partners upon finishing graduate school.

During his studies, Mr. Simianu received the honor of being the sole student selected for both the undergraduate and graduate components of the Life Sciences Fellowship at Indiana University Bloomington and the Kelley School of Business. He also co-founded the Virtu Project in 2007 — a career highlight — as the student-run mutual fund continues to outperform hedge funds and Wall Street benchmarks, creating alpha for investors, educating passionate students, and generating donations for health initiatives in developing nations.

Mr. Simianu received a Bachelor of Science in biotechnology and an MBA in corporate innovation, finance and life sciences from Indiana University Bloomington in 2008 and 2011, respectively. Maintaining a team of certified pharmacy consultants and recognized as a strategic partner with the Accreditation Commission for Health Care Inc. (ACHC), Sphinx Strategies has been a guiding light for pharmacy quality for over a decade. Mr. Simianu also maintains an active affiliation with the National Association of Specialty Pharmacy (NASP), chairing the AI subcommittee and speaking at its national conference on topics ranging from cell and gene therapy to AI adoption and best practices.

Mr. Simianu attributes his success to the support of his family, particularly his parents, whose sacrifices and work ethic inspired his appreciation for their professional values. Driven by a desire to improve society and give back to his parents, he plans to continue growing Sphinx Strategies and the portfolio of brands and companies he oversees. He also hopes to participate in initiatives aimed at protecting the environment, underscoring his commitment to nature and conservation.

While his experience has helped Sphinx Strategies lead in the pharmacy industry, Mr. Simianu has also helped catalyze over 200 startups, with some reaching "unicorn" status. He remains focused on entrepreneurship across sectors, including formations, fundraising and board advisory roles.
