Lehigh Center works with several major pharmaceutical companies

Covance is a global organization that supports pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies around the world as they develop better, more effective treatments for a variety of illnesses and disorders. Much like Lehigh Center, Covance conducts clinic research on trial medications before they are released to the general public. Additionally, they also offer laboratory testing services to the chemical, agrochemical and food industries, and provide commercialization services as well.

After decades of steady growth and several mergers and acquisitions, Covance was officially established in 1997. Now owned by Labcorp,  a world leader in healthcare diagnostics, Covance provides comprehensive drug development services.
