To accelerate the journey to the clinic, we offer a full range of development and manufacturing services for all major classes of biopharmaceutical, and have developed a portfolio of technologies aimed to improve product yield, reduce process development time and increase product stability. These technologies have demonstrated to reduce risks, improve timelines and reduce costs in biopharmaceutical development to make sure the product receives the patient without any unnecessary delays. We are an active player in Global Health, where we collaborate with prominent academic institutions and public organizations to improve the availability and affordability of key biopharmaceuticals for all in need.
