Core compliance pillars
Operational foundationCorporate governance
Clear accountability, documented decision making, and responsible oversight across scientific, operational, and partner activities.
Scientific integrity
Accurate records, transparent reporting, reproducible workflows, and disciplined review of preclinical data and technical claims.
Data privacy and security
Controlled access, proportionate data handling, and privacy aware communications for partners, institutions, and professional contacts.
Confidentiality and IP protection
Information sharing on a need to know basis with NDA supported discussions, version control, and protected disclosure pathways.
Anti bribery and conflicts
Zero tolerance for improper payments or inducements, with conflict disclosure expectations for employees, advisors, and partners.
Third party due diligence
Risk based screening and onboarding for suppliers, consultants, CROs, and strategic collaborators before sensitive engagement.
How compliance is applied in practice
Execution workflowScreen and scope
We define the purpose of each collaboration or vendor engagement, identify the risk profile, and confirm what information can be shared at the initial stage.
Confidentiality controls
Where appropriate, discussions move forward under NDA with clear boundaries on data use, disclosure, and onward sharing.
Due diligence and documentation
We collect essential corporate and operational details, check fit for purpose, and maintain organised records of material communications and approvals.
Role based access
Information access is limited to relevant team members and partners, with practical controls for sensitive scientific, commercial, and IP materials.
Ongoing review and escalation
Concerns are raised early, reviewed promptly, and escalated to the appropriate internal lead for remediation or policy action.
Audit trail and improvement
We maintain traceability for key decisions and update procedures as the company, partnerships, and regulatory expectations evolve.
