"Light Pharma" was born at start of the new millennium at midnight on January 1st 2001. Its mission - "To Transform The Way Medicine Is Made". Light Pharma's purpose is to "help make pharmaceuticals cheaper, better, and faster for the people who need them." In the words of Light Pharma founder G.K. Raju, "We can't think of anything more important to do. Can you?"

Light Pharma is about light. According to The Synonym Finder by J.I. Rodale, the noun "light" implies many things such as illumination, shining, brilliance, glow, brightness, beam, ray, shaft of light, shining star, daylight, sunshine, sunrise, enlightenment, awareness, insight, understanding, luminary, model, exemplar, example, guide and bring to light. The adjective "light" can mean unheavy, weightless, simple, easy, pleasing, nimble, supple, agile, cheerful and optimistic. Thats the "Light" in Light Pharma.

Light Pharma is about energy, transformation and basic fundamentals. Stephen Mehler in The Origin of the Word Pyramid elucidates that the Greek word pyramid means "fire in the middle." He says that the ancient Egyptians used the term Per-Neter for pyramid, which means House of Nature, or House of Energy . He notes that one of the main purposes of the Great Pyramid was to generate, transform, and transmit energy. In doing so, the Great Pyramid, gives us a unique chance to launch radical changes in our views on the nature of things and advance the frontier of thorough knowledge. According to J. Douglas Kenyon in Fingerprinting the Gods, what comes across from documents like the ancient Egyptian Pyramid texts is a kind of science of immortality, a quest for the immortality of the soul. A feeling that immortality may not be guaranteed by being born but rather something to be worked for. Something that results from the focused power of the mind. He suggests that the real purpose of the pyramids may be to teach us how to achieve immortality. Hence the Pyramid in the Light Pharma logo.

The founders of Light Pharma were at the base of these pyramids as "Light Pharma" was being born. Since then, the company has provided the light and energy to fundamentally transform the way medicine is being made at leading pharmaceutical and biotechnology companies. LightPharma™ is transforming the way medicine is made..
