TCPI is a leading Cambridge-based consulting company in the life sciences. Founded in 1994 as the Cambridge Partnership, and incorporated as a limited company in 2001, we have more than a decade of experience providing solutions to a wide range of institutions throughout Europe. While our initial focus was technical consultancy, more than half our assignments in 2007 were related to business development, financial and intellectual property management. TCPI continues to grow strongly, doubling its turnover every year since its inception, but our reputation for quality remains untarnished. TCP Innovations Ltd is also the holding company for the Group, and is headquartered in Duxford, some nine miles south of Cambridge.

Formed in 2006, Total Scientific Ltd is a new kind of Contract Research Organisation (CRO). Total can help with every aspect of the drug development process from API manufacture to large, phase III clinical trials. What makes Total different, though, is their "design and execute" philosophy: most CROs do an excellent job of running studies once the client has decided on a study design - but, particularly for smaller companies - the expertise to make the right design decisions may not always be available. So instead of contacting a conventional CRO with a design in hand, clients come to Total with an objective. The result? A smarter study design, which saves time and money compared to conventional CROs. Total Scientific occupies laboratory and office accommodation on the Babraham Bioscience Campus, near Cambridge.
