Who We Are

About Us

Our name, Xentria, is inspired by “centrality.” It describes our dedication to delivering adaptive approaches to ambitious drug innovation through authentic life-sciences partnerships. Established in 2020, we collaborate with biopharmaceutic communities to create innovative solutions to challenging drug development.

Headquartered in Chicago, we are taking a lead to support surging life-sciences initiatives for global audiences while encouraging diversity, individualism and sustainability.
