30 years HWI

08. January 2021

30 years ago: On January 8^th, 1991, the company was founded by Dr. Stefan Wissel and Prof. Dr. Hanns Häberlein. The two university friends created the name HWI from the first letters of their last names.

The corner stone for HWI group was a small analytical laboratory in the backyard. This has turned into an internationally operating group of companies with services for the pharma, biotech and medtech industries. 200 employees at four locations sites work on projects in Drug Development, Testing, Pharmacovigilance and Regulatory Affairs.

With innovative technology platforms and digital transformation HWI is heading into the future.
