Who are we?

ChiraTecnics was founded in 2009 by Prof. Anthony Burke as a spin-out from the University of Évora, with the aim to manufacture and commercialise ligands, building blocks and catalysts for chiral synthesis.

Whilst the company still offers this portfolio to clients, it now mainly focuses on custom synthesis programmes to support medicinal chemistry and drug discovery projects for pharmaceutical and biotech companies. It is led by a strong international team and has access to all vital equipment to implement our projects.
