Since the founding of The McConnell Group, Inc. (TMG), the company has focused mainly on health sciences services and products. Dr. Irving W. McConnell — a veterinarian with a wide ranging background in research and development (R&D), biomedical research, toxicology, laboratory animal medicine, new product development, sales and training — provided the vision to develop a company that would make a difference in science and the community. He recognized the need for a single-source company to meet the infrastructure needs in biomedical research, while addressing and solving some national and world needs in the field of health services. This vision comes together as TMG applies its energy and creativity to a wide range of professional services.
The commitment of its employees and each individual’s contributions have driven the company’s success. TMG believes in hiring professionals who want to perform superior scientific and technical work. The environment presents opportunities to make a difference not only in shaping the development and direction of an enterprise but also in making personal achievements as they are doing so. With additional offices in San Antonio, TX and Washington, DC, TMG is poised to continue recruiting the best of available resources.
The value of community engagement is integral to the growth of TMG. Its future depends on working with others and realizing the importance of giving back as it grows and succeeds. TMG supports the Arts, such as the James A. Michener Art Museum, and is involved in developing after-school science programs for high schools in a number of East Coast cities.
