About Catalyst Corp
The event partner built for life sciences
For fourteen years we've brought sponsors, CROs, investigators and biotech innovators into one room — from first molecule to Phase IV. Compliant by design, memorable by intent, across the UK and United States.
Our mission
Connecting minds, advancing medicine
Great science moves faster when the right people are in the room. We exist to create those rooms — scientifically rigorous, fully compliant, and genuinely worth attending — so that research reaches patients sooner.
We're specialists, not generalists. Every planner on our team understands the difference between a CME session and a promotional one, why transfer-of-value reporting matters, and how to keep an investigator meeting on-protocol.
Our story
Fourteen years in the making
Founded in London
Catalyst Corp opens its doors with a single focus: scientific events done properly, for pharma and medical clients.
First flagship congress
We deliver our first 1,000-delegate clinical-trials congress, setting the template for compliant large-scale events.
Boston office opens
A US base lets us run transatlantic programmes end-to-end, with local teams on both sides of the Atlantic.
Catalyst Live launches
Our branded virtual & hybrid platform keeps the science moving when the world couldn't travel — and stays for good.
320+ events and counting
Today we run 28+ events a year across oncology, clinical trials, drug discovery, regulatory and digital health.
What we stand for
Our values
Compliance first
Codes of practice, accreditation and data integrity are built in from day one — never bolted on at the end.
Scientific rigour
Programmes shaped with scientific committees, not marketing calendars. The content earns the room.
Delegate experience
Every touchpoint — from registration to replays — designed to respect the time of busy clinicians and scientists.
Leadership
The team behind your events
Event scientists, compliance specialists and production leads who've spent their careers in life sciences.
