SYNTROPHARMA NAMED BEST 'BUSINESS IDEA'

February 27, 2006

The Borders' reputation as a location for fast growing life sciences companies is set to continue after Syntropharma came out top at the final of the national Business Idea competition at a prestigious event in the Borders yesterday. The start-up company's directors Andrew Gardiner and David McHoul won the competition after identifying a niche in the current global pharmaceutical market for new ways of delivering drugs that would help to reduce side effects while also increasing the effect of the drugs and ensuring patients remembered to take their medication.
