History

[edit]

Founded in 1995 by president and CEO Alex Sefanov around the corner from Oracle's headquarters in Silicon Valley, BioPharm is headquartered in California and has offices in the United States and United Kingdom. Mr. Sefanov founded the company with his personal savings after working as an IT consultant for several major biotechnology and pharmaceutical companies. He was inspired to start the firm after working closely with Oracle and their first clinical trial software application, Oracle Clinical.[3]

In April 2014, BioPharm Systems was acquired by information technology firm Perficient for $17.6 million.[5][6][7]
