Some insights
We support and facilitate the transfer of innovative knowledge and technology from the laboratory to patients.
The companies in the park raised more than 3 billion Swiss francs and signed licensing agreements with major pharmaceutical companies worth a total of 10 billion Swiss francs, excluding royalties. Twenty of the companies were sold to industry leaders for approximately 5 billion Swiss francs.
Many successful companies in the Bio-Technopark serve as role models. For example, Glycart AG was sold to Roche in 2005. The drugs developed at Glycart and marketed by Roche generate over one billion Swiss francs in sales per year.
When all stakeholders see themselves as a part of a unified national life sciences cluster.
We are already in contact with many stakeholders and are open to connecting with more.
