David Benson: Honored to Lead GO2 for Lung Cancer as the Next CEO

David Benson, Chief Executive Officer GO2 for Lung Cancer shared a post on LinkedIn by GO2 for Lung Cancer, adding: 

“I’m incredibly honored to join GO2 for Lung Cancer as its next CEO.

The burden of lung cancer remains unacceptably high. It is still the leading cause of cancer death, and every year nearly 230,000 people in the United States are diagnosed with this disease.

Yet, at the very same time, we are witnessing extraordinary breakthroughs in early detection, precision medicine, targeted therapies, and research that are transforming what’s possible for patients and families.

Real progress is creating real hope.

That’s what excites me most about joining GO2.

I’m grateful to the Board for the opportunity to lead this extraordinary organization and build on the incredible work already underway.
To everyone who has shaped GO2 into the organization it is today, thank you. Your passion, leadership, and commitment have created real progress and real hope for patients and families.

And to everyone who believes we can change the future of lung cancer, I invite you to join us. Together, we can accelerate progress, inspire hope, and ensure that no one faces lung cancer alone.

I’m excited to get started.”
