About Us
HERON is a privately held company founded in the UK in 1999 by Paul Howard, John Kerrigan and Chris Knight. Today the company is still wholly owned and operated by the three co-founders and a loyal team of experts. HERON has grown organically and now has five offices in four countries with over 100 employees. We estimate HERON is the largest independent provider in the sector and the company has ambitious growth plans to become even more competitive in its key areas of expertise.
To provide the specialism demanded by our clients, our services and our people are structured into three core business units (Evidence Reviews, Pricing & Market Access, Health Economic Modelling) which are vertically and horizontally integrated across geographies and offices. Our offices in the UK, US, India and Sweden work to bring the best blend of expertise together for maximum project effect and efficiency.
These capabilities inform and support one another; pricing and market access strategies capture and shape payer perceptions, while systematic reviews and meta-analyses, along with economic models, demonstrate a product's clinical and economic positioning.
This combination of key competencies, together with experience and proven success in global programmes, are driving rapid growth in capacity and geographic expansion in complex, changing and commercially critical US and European markets.
