When was Neurocept founded and who are its founders?
Executive summary
Neurocept’s corporate origins are unclear without specifying which legal entity is meant: a UK company named Neurocept Limited was incorporated on 20 November 2015, with a director appointment on that date, but public records do not name a distinct “founder” beyond listed officers; commercially branded pages for a Neurocept supplement and references to a U.S. “Neurocept Inc.” do not disclose a founding date or founding individuals. The strongest verifiable record is the Companies House entry showing incorporation and a director name, while promotional sites and secondary company profiles lack corroborating founding or founder details, so any definitive claim about founders or a founding year beyond the UK incorporation requires additional primary-company disclosures or filings [1] [2] [3] [4].
1. Why the founding question splits into different companies — and what the UK register actually shows
Search results and publicly available pages show at least two distinct uses of the Neurocept name: a commercial supplement brand and a UK-registered company. The UK corporate registry entry lists Neurocept Limited as incorporated on 20 November 2015 and records a director appointment on that same date; the company was later dissolved on 25 April 2017, and its registered office was in Birmingham, England [1]. The Companies House “people” lookup identifies Stelios Kiosses as an officer appointed 20 November 2015, which provides the only named individual tied to that registration in the supplied records [2]. These filings establish a formal incorporation date for a legal entity named Neurocept Limited, but do not present a separate “founder” statement beyond officer appointments in the public extract.
2. What the supplement brand and U.S. profiles say — and what they omit
Promotional materials and business-profile pages for a Neurocept supplement or a U.S. Neurocept Inc. emphasize product claims, ingredients, markets, and business strategy but do not present a corporate founding date or a clear founder list. The official product website focuses on marketing content—ingredients, testimonials and pricing—without company history or leadership disclosure [3]. A business-profile entry styled as “Neurocept Inc.” describes the company as a supplement corporation and outlines growth or distribution priorities, yet the profile text also lacks a founding date or founder names [4]. These omissions suggest an agenda to promote the product rather than to document corporate origins; promotional pages commonly omit corporate-history details unless the brand chooses to present them.
3. Confusion with other similarly named biotech entities and patent records
Some search snippets refer to different organizations with related names, such as NeurOp, a clinical-stage biotechnology company with patent filings dating back to 2012 and personnel like Dr. James McNamara mentioned in leadership roles [5]. These references demonstrate how name similarity creates conflation between unrelated entities: NeurOp’s patent application dates suggest establishment activity before 2012, but this is not evidence about Neurocept brand companies. The presence of dissimilar legal names and overlapping subject matter (neuroscience-related products or therapeutics) increases the risk of misattribution; careful attention to legal entity identifiers (company numbers, registered addresses) is required to attribute founding dates and founders accurately.
4. What can be reliably stated today and what remains unresolved
Based on verified public filings, Neurocept Limited’s incorporation date is 20 November 2015, with an officer appointment listing Stelios Kiosses; the company later dissolved in April 2017 [1] [2]. Promotional websites for a Neurocept supplement and non-UK business profiles do not supply founding dates or founder names and therefore cannot be used to establish a founding event or founders [3] [4]. What remains unresolved is whether the supplement-brand “Neurocept” is the same legal entity as the UK company or a separate U.S. corporation; the available sources do not connect the marketing presence to a specific corporate formation record that names founders.
5. How to close the gap — documents and disclosures that would settle it
To conclusively answer “When was Neurocept founded and who are its founders?” one should obtain primary corporate documents: the full Companies House filing history and incorporation documents for Neurocept Limited, corporate formation filings (state-level) or secretary-of-state records for any U.S. Neurocept Inc., and the company’s own governance disclosures, press releases, or leadership biographies. Those records would show incorporation dates, initial director/secretary appointments, and any founder statements. Given the current evidence, the factual claim that a Neurocept entity was incorporated on 20 November 2015 and that an officer named Stelios Kiosses is associated with that filing is supportable; any broader founder attribution to the supplement brand or to other similarly named companies is unsupported by the supplied documents [1] [2] [3].
