A New Chapter… and a Bigger Platform for Greater Regulatory Science

We’ve got some big news…

Blue Frog Scientific has joined Certania – an international group of specialist companies working across regulatory science, testing, inspection and certification.

We’re not changing who we are. We’re strengthening what we do. And, we’re excited…

Why We’ve Joined Certania

Regulatory compliance won’t be getting any more straightforward any time soon. Projects are getting more complex, regulations are evolving faster than ever, expectations are getting higher.

For years, we’ve been considering how we’ll continue to meet the increasing challenge – whether by growing in numbers, expanding our capabilities, developing partnerships… all with the intention of bringing deeper expertise, broader coverage and the ability to support more complex, multi-jurisdictional programmes.

Certania stood out, not just for its scale, but for how it is structured and how Blue Frog would fit. Certania is a group of specialist, science-led businesses that complement each other. Teams with real depth of expertise in their fields and people who understand, and care about the detail. That matters to us.

What This Acquisition Means for Our Clients

The fundamentals of our business aren’t changing. You’ll work with all the same specialists. Our leadership team remains in place. Our standards, quality, commitment, responsibility to our clients… all exactly the same.

What is changing is the structure that now sits behind us. As part of Certania, we now have access to a much broader network of expertise across regulatory science and compliance.

We can take on larger, more complex programmes with confidence.
We can support you across a wider range of regulatory requirements.
We now have additional specialist expertise that adds genuine value.
We’ve extended our reach further across the UK, EU and internationally.

In practical terms – we’re the same Blue Frog, just with a little more spring in our leap!

A More Connected Approach to Regulatory Compliance

One of the most exciting parts of this move is the opportunity to work alongside other Certania companies – each bringing something different – from complementary regulatory expertise through to adjacent services across testing and compliance. Individually, they’re strong, but together, they (now we) are far more powerful.

For our clients, this means a more connected approach and joined-up thinking across the full regulatory lifecycle.

Strengthening Our Expertise in Regulatory Science

At our core, nothing is changing and Blue Frog remains focused on what we do best:

• Corporate Regulatory Strategy
• Registrations, Approvals & Authorisations
• Technical Regulatory Services
• Dossier Production & Expert Reports
• Safety & Risk Assessment
• Advocacy & Stakeholder Engagement
• Consortium Management
• Only Representative Services (OR)

Now backed by Certania, we can continue to invest in our scientific capability, expand our service offering, our regulatory specialisms and the markets we serve – supporting clients across an even broader range of regulatory challenges.

Looking Forward

We’re incredibly proud of what we’ve built at Blue Frog. Joining Certania isn’t a departure from that – it’s our next evolutionary leap.

It gives us the platform to grow, to invest, and to take on more ambitious work – while staying true to the way we’ve always operated. Practical. Scientific. Focused on delivery.

This strengthens what we do, without changing who we are. And we’re looking forward to what comes next. If you have questions, we’re always happy to talk.

“This is a really positive step for Blue Frog. We’ve always focused on delivering high-quality, science-led regulatory support. Being part of Certania allows us to build on that – expanding our capability and capacity while staying true to how we work and what our clients value.”
