Private sector
Real-world solutions
Applied research, risk management and biosecurity support for integrated production companies, industry representative bodies and input providers such as pharmaceutical and genetics companies
Scientific Rigour. Commercial Agility
In the private sector, biological risks are business risks. Whether you are managing an integrated supply chain, developing a new pharmaceutical product, or representing a livestock sector, the quality of your health data determines your market access and your bottom line.
At EpiMundi, we bridge the gap between regulatory science and commercial strategy. We provide the same high-level epidemiological rigour trusted by international bodies like EFSA and WOAH, but we deliver it with the responsiveness and agility required by business.
EpiMundi
EpiMundi is an independent epidemiology consulting firm based in Lyon, France, bridging the gap between scientific rigour and commercial strategy.
While our roots are in high-level research for international bodies, our private sector team is dedicated to transforming complex health data into operational intelligence. We partner with integrated producers, agribusiness leaders, and industry associations to solve critical challenges in animal health and food security.
Our team specialises in surveillance design, advanced data analytics, and real-time disease modelling. We move beyond theory to develop user-friendly, secure tools that assist in early warning, contingency planning, and the protection of profit margins.
With unique global experience in compartmentalisation and trade negotiation support, we are the strategic partner of choice for industries looking to secure market access, manage biological risk, and prove the integrity of their supply chain.
Why the Private Sector Partners with Us
Evidence that stands up to scrutiny: Your data often needs to convince competent authorities or trading partners. Because we work intimately with international standard-setters, we ensure our analysis and reports meet the highest levels of scientific validation, protecting your reputation and your trade status.
Operational realism: We are not academics in an ivory tower. We understand production flows, margin pressures, and logistical constraints. Our advice is designed to be actionable within your specific commercial system, not just theoretically correct in a lab.
Global cross-sector insight: Innovation often happens at the intersection of industries. With deep experience across terrestrial and aquatic species—from salmon in Norway to poultry in South-East Asia — we bring a unique breadth of knowledge. We apply lessons learned in one sector to solve novel challenges in another.
Uncompromising data privacy: We understand that your data is a trade secret. We are experts in the governance and stewardship of private data, ensuring that your information is analysed to drive value while remaining strictly confidential and secure.
