Company History

ICON Central Laboratories and its predecessor companies have served the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries since the early 1990s. Our company evolved from NDA Laboratories that was founded in the United States in 1993 to provide central laboratory support. In 1995, in response to the industry’s growing need for global capabilities, NDA Laboratories became part of the larger UK-based company known as UCTI. In June 2000, ICON plc bought the U.S. laboratory to complement its central laboratory based in Dublin Ireland, known as Clinicon.

Today, ICON Central Laboratories is regarded as one of the leading central laboratories in the world.
