The TechnoPharmaSphere Story

Good Science and Best Industrial Practices Are Our DNA Building Blocks

TechnoPharmaSphere Is Passionate About Helping You To Meet Your Business Goals And Accelerate Medicine Development For Patients Around The World.

The company started as a small firm with operations focused on the development of analytical and biophysical methods including technologies for pharmaceutical product characterization in the USA. We have endured many challenges in this field along the road but our team at TechnoPharmaSphere has never swayed from its mission.

As the demand for enhanced medications to fight a range of diseases increases, the number of biopharm therapeutics is also increasing. However, developing clinical-grade material from these complex molecules is quite challenging owed to a lack of proper analytical technologies, stable formulations, and robust manufacturing processes.

The extensive experience in the full range of biopharm CMC development, interaction with regulatory, intellectual property protection, has helped us to grow into responsible and reliable organization in the biopharma industry. The highest quality science and innovation are the core of our extended services to help clients in the entire CMC development all around the globe, and this is what represents TechnoPharmaSphere!

At TechnoPharmaSphere, we collaborate with your teams in research, development, and manufacturing to effectively deliver enhanced biopharm medicines. Our goal is to help produce clinical and market grade material for the manufacturing of quality medicines. We extensively and rigorously utilize our supreme science and industrial expertise to provide innovative solutions for the full range of product development.

We always aim to share our expertise and donate a percent of our revenue to support the development of the scientific community in education and counseling. We aim to mentor professionals in the challenging field of biopharm to help introduce newer pharmaceutical innovations.

Leadership Team

Fatma AlAzzam, PhD
Co-founder and Chief Executive Officer

In 2012, Fatma Alazzam founded TechnoPharmaSphere LLC with the help of her husband and 4 kids which didn't have a great start at the beginning. After her third son was diagnosed with Stage IV Wilms Tumor, sadly passing a year later, she made a promise: TechnoPharmaSphere LLC will be a trusted company to help in the development of drugs to treat diseasesincluding cancer. She believes the cure for cancer is possible by combining correct science and technology.

Fatma earned her PhD in peptide, protein, and lipid biophysics. Her 15 years of experience in biopharm research, formulation, and analytical technologies resulted in several published peer reviewed articles in journals such as PNAS, Biochemistry and JACS. Her experience in studying the structure of peptides and proteins in different formulations has contributed significantly to better understand protein folding and unfolding states. Moreover, Fatma added a good number of novel findings in the formulation of liposome nanoparticles and liposomes’ interaction with vitamins, peptide, and proteins. She has elucidated many protein structural aspects relevant to industrial processes in protein’s liquid, lyophilized, and microglassification formulation. She has developed improvements to analytical characterization methods and biopharm product formulation developments from which she has delivered and written numerous articles.

She has demonstrated a strong portfolio of success leading technology developments for the pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and life science industries in addition to adept at cultivating relationships with our partners, suppliers, and customers.
