A European FSP team, stood up in under four months

A fast-growing global pharmaceutical company moved to TFS after delays with a larger CRO. We set up a European entity in under four months, built the team and led the handover through an experienced FSP line manager.
Milestones stayed on track, in-country activities ran as part of the client team and the partnership has since expanded to further FSP work in Europe.

Global presence designed for local agility

International scale, deep local roots

We have built our structure by integrating established clinical teams across key markets, rather than handing off trials to unknown third parties. Operating directly on the ground allows us to navigate local regulations, streamline ethics approvals and keep recruitment on track.
