History
MedPharm was created in 1999 as a spin-out of King's College London by Prof. Chris Marriott, Prof. Gary Martin and Prof. Marc Brown, all from the Department of Pharmacy, and also Dr. Andrew Muddle, who joined the company at formation as Chief Executive.
MedPharms R&D laboratories were originally based at Kings College London but MedPharm has grown at such a pace that aquiring our own dedicated R&D facilities became essential. In autumn 2006 the Pharm R&D Centre was relocated to Surrey Research Park, Guildford allowing significant expansion of R&D activities.
