There are companies (licensors) around the world developing breakthrough human and animal health products that are available and successful in their country of origin.
These winning pharmaceuticals and functional foods are potential global bestsellers if licensed to leading companies (licensees) in different geographic areas with credibility and a proven record of marketing to physicians and consumers.
Cetalus is the link that connects licensors and licensees and transforms domestic winners into global successes.
Cetalus LLC was founded in 2005 by Ajay Srinivas, with the vision of globalizing life-changing health products to bring transformational market-share, sales and profitability to both licensors—small and medium developers and manufacturers—and 1,000 top licensees in 30 countries worldwide.
Doing what it takes to transform your business.
Cetalus’ proven formula is to identify exceptional products using our proprietary screening process, market them with top companies who have expertise in new product introductions, secure Agreements, and shepherd the process to successful commercialization.

We use advanced marketing techniques that optimize reach and frequency so that your product gets appropriate exposure. We follow up with multiple contacts at decision-making levels to ensure the right people are aware of the product’s winning therapeutic value and market demand.
Once interest is established, our depth of experience comes into play in negotiating and executing sustainable Agreements.

What sets Cetalus apart: more than introducing your products to a global audience and securing an Agreement, we see each account acquisition, each transaction through to its fruition.
After Agreements are executed, Cetalus guides every phase of the launching process, implementing marketing strategies and providing post-launch support and follow-through.
All this is facilitated by Cetalus’ unique ability to build a strong partnership of transparency and communication between licensor and licensee, fostering a long and mutually advantageous relationship. That way, obstacles or issues incurred that might normally derail an Agreement are resolved on the foundation of trust that has been developed.
