Most research based pharmaceutical companies invest heavily in the Research and Development (R&D) of new chemical entities. This is the major investment for most innovators and one which must be protected. As with any product, infringement of patent and Intellectual Property (IP) rights can cause massive damage not only impacting on sales and revenue streams but also denigrating customer confidence and ultimately the manufacturers' reputation.

We can assist companies to protect these important assets and often operate pro-actively to monitor the market place and warn of potential hazards.

Our highly experienced team of investigators are able to obtain intelligence and evidence against manufacturers of infringing Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients (API) together with details of the supply chain network of those using infringing materials and the target companies and countries to which they are being supplied.

Often infringing API is linked to pharmaceutical counterfeiting and is used in the manufacture of counterfeit finished dosage pharmaceutical product. Our investigations can assist in the identification and subsequent enforcement against fake drug manufacturers and suppliers.
