This Edinburgh company runs international drug trials to test new cancer therapies. It has about 25 customers, mostly small biotech companies based in North America, although it opened offices in Germany and Belgium this year. Sales growth has been boosted by an increase in consultancy work and the company’s growing ability to support larger trials. Chief executive Clare Wareing founded the firm in 1999 with a redundancy payout of £10,000. Sales rose 44% a year from £2.4m in 2006 to £7.2m in 2009.
