Treweren Consultants was formed in 1988 by Keith and Cathy Davies shortly after they sold their controlling shareholding in Chemical Design to Oxford Molecular (now part of Accelrys).

Keith founded Chemical Design in 1983, gained the Queens Award for Export in 1988, and took the company public in 1996. In his role as Technical Director, his primary contribution was the strategic direction of Chem-X, including the innovative development and application of 3D database and pharmacophore technology.

Cathy joined Chemical Design in 1984 and worked on Chem-X from its earliest days, both in customer support and in programming. She was responsible for implementing much of the pharmacophore technology, especially in receptor screening.

Treweren Consultants aims to work with a small number of companies who are interested in collaborative development of pharmacophore tools and virtual screening in its innovative THINK software.
