About Us

We're Cloud Architects for Regulated Innovators

Founded to bridge the gap between advanced cloud technology and the unique needs of life sciences, biotech, and highly regulated industries.

Built for Innovators Who Can't Afford to Fail

skyPurple Cloud was founded in Oxford, UK, with a clear mission: help life science and biotech companies use cloud technology without compromising on security, compliance, or cost-effectiveness.

We've seen firsthand how traditional cloud consultancies struggle with the complexities of regulated industries. That's why we specialized—bringing deep expertise in both cloud architecture and the unique requirements of life sciences, pharmaceutical research, and biotech innovation.

Today, we're proud to be an AWS Select Tier Consulting Partner, serving organisations across the UK and Europe who trust us to power their mission-critical research and development infrastructure.

In recent years we have rebuilt how we deliver. Our AI Delivery Lifecycle uses AI to scope, generate and test cloud infrastructure and code — and a mandatory human stop-before-deploy checkpoint to make sure nothing reaches a regulated environment without review. Our clients get the speed of AI-assisted engineering with the evidence trail their auditors expect.
