CECON History
In 1985 six retired Du Pont scientists and engineers started The CECON Group, Inc. They immediately found a huge demand for their state-of-the art technical expertise. But in the course of their consulting, they also found a huge demand for technical experts outside their own skill areas. Thus the CECON consulting network began finding the exact experts who can specifically address the clients technical problem and needs. Today the CECON consultant family is still growing with more than 700 technical experts in our data bases.
CECON's original roots were in chemistry, polymers, chemical engineering, materials technology and related fabricated products. Today CECON represents a vast array of world class scientific and engineering experts in many disciplines. We serve many Client Sectors, as detailed in that section of the web site. Today CECON's consulting practice is almost evenly split between materials technology, pharmaceutical and biotechnology, and support for attorneys, either in patent cases of as technical expert witness.
CECON Consultants serve global clients in all areas of science and technology, excluding Medical Practices. Consultant application area generally segment into four equal categories:
- Legal Clients with matters related to patent litigation, defense, and tort cases related to product or technology fitness for use;
