About us
Identify the best innovative ideas to improve human health
We care about unmet medical needs and rigorous, highly-translatable data. While data and need drives decisions, intellectual property, competitive analysis, and regulatory paths are also important factors. The inventor is central, and generally external to Celdara.
Collaborate with the inventor to determine the best scientific, preclinical, clinical, and regulatory strategies
Together we define the path to Phase II clinical trial, then work backwards to the present, identifying activities, roles, milestones, key decision points, and often third-party partners who can add value and/or reduce risk of the Program. With a primary focus on significant improvements in human health, a collaborative culture is in our DNA.
Fund the development plan, leveraging non-dilutive sources of capital whenever possible
We love early-stage, change-the-world innovations, even if they appear high-risk. And while we certainly invest our own time and money, non-dilutive development funding fundamentally shifts expected returns, enabling us to work on innovations that others would call “too risky” or “too early” and turn them into assets that have the potential to dramatically improve clinical care.
Develop the asset and/or the business into the clinical stage
This is execution, and this is what we do best. The path is never straight, but our team of outstanding scientists is also a team of outstanding risk managers. The inventor is a key member of the team, which is further augmented with external subject matter experts, key opinion leaders, and partners to minimize risk and time-to-IND while maximizing the chance that the asset becomes a valuable clinical candidate. Financial and/or strategic exit partners are engaged as soon as is appropriate.

Corporate Social Responsibility
Celdara Medical was founded with a singular focus: providing hope and health to patients. And so we see CSR through the three lenses of people, planet, and patients, fully confident in the knowledge that if we can improve the lives of patients, profits will follow. As our company has grown, we have had an opportunity to give back to our communities. Each year our entire team discusses and defines how best to engage with our communities to create positive impact. We always prefer active participation: helping farms that supply foodbanks, trail-building, teaching the next generation of scientists, filling back-to-school backpacks, or bowls at the soup kitchen, or simply cleaning up our neighborhoods. Our people are our company, and CSR is a therefore a natural extension of individual social responsibility to the workplace.
The Fanger Center at Crossroads Academy
In honor of Celdara Co-Founder and Chairman Emeritus, Michael Fanger, the company supported the construction of an adaptable, cutting-edge facility, housing a state-of-the-art STEM lab for middle and high school students in NH & VT. Celdara partnered with Crossroads Academy and the New Hampshire Academy of Science (NHAS) to make this vision possible.
Upper Valley Land Trust Volunteer Day
Celdara joined UVLT to clear a pathway for a .75 mile “story walk” trail in Lyme, NH. The story walk trail at Lyme Hill will feature pages from children’s books on mounts made locally. Looking forward to following the project until opening day for local elementary school children!!
What we do
Celdara constantly strives to create value for all our stakeholders: patients, customers, shareholders, employees, partners, and our community. This is what we do. How we do it is equally vital.
Integrity
We honor each of our commitments - including those that outsiders would consider trivial - with strict adherence to the highest ethical standards.
Our work saves lives. We make people’s lives better. This work is our passion, and we pursue it with energy and intensity.
We execute all aspects of our business plan and conduct our professional lives with exactness, specificity, and diligence.
We continuously identify and relentlessly mitigate risk in all areas of our business. Risk is a constant focus and mitigation a core philosophy.
