Proton Partners International

Proton Partners International is a company based in Wales created by Neil Woodford and Professor Karol Sikora to develop Proton therapy facilities in the United Kingdom and elsewhere.

It is developing centres in Newport, Wales, Bomarsund, Northumberland, and Reading, Berkshire and has raised in excess of £63 million of equity including £10 million from the Welsh Life Sciences Fund and companies associated with Woodford. It secured £30 million from Shawbrook Bank in January 2016. The Northumberland site benefited from a grant of £450,000 from the Let’s Grow regional growth fund programme.

Graham Construction is developing a cancer treatment centre in the Thames Valley Science Park in Reading for the company at a cost of £30 million. This is due for completion at the end of 2017.

It bought the Gulf International Cancer Centre in Abu Dhabi in November 2016 as part of plans to create the first proton beam therapy treatment centre in the United Arab Emirates.
