Background

About Karl Davison

Turbocharging clinical research delivery is what drives me and at Panthera Biopartners, my priority is helping industry partners accelerate study start-up, enhance patient recruitment, and achieve the consistent, high-quality trial performance they need.With experience shaping business development across the UK life sciences ecosystem at the NIHR, I bring a strong track record in strategic partnership building, stakeholder alignment, and collaborative problem-solving. At Panthera, I apply this expertise to create faster, more predictable pathways for sponsors and CROs, enabling rapid site activation, streamlined feasibility and set-up, and smoother operational delivery from first contact to first patient in.I work closely with global pharmaceutical companies, biotech innovators, and CRO leaders, as well as key government organisations, to design partnership models that remove barriers, reduce timelines, and expand access to well-profiled patient populations. My focus is on delivering practical, scalable solutions that support industry needs while strengthening the UK’s clinical research capability.If you’re looking for a partner who can inject pace, precision, and reliability into your clinical research programmes, I’d welcome a conversation.
