Topical and transdermal CDMO handling formulation through commercial manufacturing
MedPharm operates a contract development and manufacturing organization focused on topical and transdermal therapies, spanning formulation development through commercial-scale production. The tech stack reflects a regulated-manufacturing footprint—HPLC, GCP, virtualization via Hyper-V and Citrix, plus Salesforce—rather than a software-first posture. Active projects center on GMP compliance, stability studies, and EQMS migration, while hiring skews heavily research (7 of 13 roles) with director-level additions, suggesting scaled formulation work and early-stage leadership investment in UK and US sites.
