About

Henley provides independent services to biotech companies and the investors who fund them on clinical trial outsourcing, CRO selection and investment decisions.

— About

Senior experience. Direct advice.

Henley is an independent advisory firm built on more than two decades of experience inside the global CRO industry.

Advice is practical, independent and focused on areas where direct industry experience can add value. Additional specialist expertise can be brought into an engagement where required.

— Experience

Experience that works for biotech sponsors.

Henley brings more than two decades of CRO industry experience across commercial leadership, clinical trial outsourcing and executive governance, now applied on the biotech sponsor's side of the table.

This includes direct involvement in more than £900m of total contracted clinical trial value, including CRO services, vendor services and trial pass-through costs. That gives biotech teams a clear view of how CRO proposals, budgets and contracts are built, and where they should be tested.

Experience covers a broad range of clinical development programmes and therapeutic areas relevant to emerging and growing biotech companies, including oncology, rare disease, cell & gene therapy and post-marketing studies.

It also extends to executive governance and oversight of outsourced clinical trials, including CRO rescue situations and moving multi-million-pound studies from one CRO to another. That experience helps sponsors protect timelines, budgets and delivery when a CRO relationship is under pressure.

Where a biotech engagement needs additional clinical or operational expertise, experienced consultants can be brought into the team.

— Approach

Straightforward. Independent. Experienced.

Henley was created to provide senior advice without unnecessary layers or complexity.

Each engagement is focused on the decisions that matter, with direct senior involvement throughout and specialist expertise added where needed.
