Background/History

For over 20 years, Concentrics Research has been a leader in the conduct of late-stage (Phase II-IV) for the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, medical device, nutritional, and consumer healthcare product industries.

In 1985, Concentrics Research was born from Walker Research, a global marketing research firm located in Indianapolis, Indiana. Over time, with a number of pharmaceutical companies, excellent relationships developed. The result was the creation and development of novel and customized clinical research services by our Clinical Division. Our heritage in healthcare marketing research has led to a focus on efficiency and commercialization.

In December of 2002, Concentrics was purchased by the Management Team and Bindley Capital Partners, LLC, an exceptional private equity firm located in Indianapolis (www.bindley.com). Bindley Capital Partners was formed by the sale of Bindley Western Industries to Cardinal Health in 2001. Founded in 1968, Bindley Western Industries was a $10 billion pharmaceutical distribution and services company (NYSE: BDY).

With significant funding from Bindley Capital, Concentrics is committed to growth and innovation. This results in a continuous improvement in service offerings for our clients.
