Founder

Guy Furness is an independent writer, editor and publisher specialising in the global drug delivery industry. Prior to founding ONdrugDelivery in 2004, he worked as a freelance drug delivery journalist and, before that, he was Editor of Scrip’s Target World Drug Delivery News, which he helped conceive, set up and launch in 2001. Mr Furness has written for leading industry magazines and journals, business reports and national newspapers, including four publications in The Times newspaper (UK). He has also occasionally written on behalf of industry, including for leading US and European drug delivery and related companies.

It was during his time as a freelance writer that Mr Furness recognised the pressing need (at that time unmet) for a niche industry information and intelligence provider able to concentrate not merely on the drug delivery industry as a whole, but to focus right down into specific topics within the field of drug delivery. This is why ONdrugDelivery was created.

Mr Furness advises several event organisers on pertinent programme content and has himself spoken on drug delivery at international pharmaceutical conferences. He began his career as a member of the editorial team of the pharmaceutical R&D products database, Pharmaprojects. He graduated from the University of Bath (UK) in 1998 with a BSc (Hons) in Natural Sciences.
