Tariq Muhammad

Tariq started out as a self-employed pharmacist and went on to set up Pharmacy Plus, an exciting company that had acquired 22 pharmacies across the South West by 2002 and which developed into a new brand of service-led pharmacies allowing pharmacists to play a significant role in medicines management and health outcomes.

Whilst at Pharmacy Plus, Tariq oversaw the development of the Proactive Care System, the first electronic barcoding system for medication designed to achieve safety at the point of administration by nurses in care homes and replace paper medicines administration records. Having acquired the Intellectual Property Rights for PCS, he set up Invatech Health, a technology company that is innovating in pharmacy and related sectors. Tariq developed additional solutions for care home medicines management which are now known under the re-branded name of Atlas. The Atlas family is now the market leader in electronic medicine management systems for care homes.
