Chiesi Group, an international biopharmaceutical company focused on research, celebrates the operational launch of its Biotech Center of Excellence.<\/a> This state-of-the-art facility is dedicated to developing and producing monoclonal antibodies, enzymes, and other proteins.<\/p>\n This facility is expected to be outstanding in Europe for its integrated approach, housing the entire supply chain under one roof. From the production of drug substances from mammalian cells to their transformation into drug products and final packaging, everything will be done in a single location. The new site\u2019s seamless integration of research and industrial production capabilities will be a major advantage, enabling more efficient transitions from development to manufacturing and significantly enhancing Chiesi\u2019s ability to innovate and bring new treatments to market.<\/a><\/p>\n This adaptability ensures Chiesi will remain at the forefront of medical trends, while the Center\u2019s capability will support the production of small and large batches, and both experimental and approved drugs to facilitate a seamless transition from clinical trials to commercial manufacturing. The new center will enhance Chiesi\u2019s focus areas in respiratory, special care treatments, and rare diseases, thereby strengthening its overall strategic position.<\/p>\n To be more and more competitive in today\u2019s pharmaceutical landscape, Chiesi is placing a strong emphasis on innovation. The decision to establish a center of excellence to produce biologic drugs in Italy is even more significant in the context of Mario Draghi\u2019s report on European competitiveness. The report underscores the urgency of closing the innovation gap with the US and China by focusing on upskilling, research, and development, and addressing regulatory hurdles.<\/p>\n The Biotech Center of Excellence will help address healthcare challenges, aiming for a more resilient and sustainable system. Chiesi seeks to align with recent biopharmaceutical advancements, and increase production in Europe, attracting international talent and investment, and creating global partnerships. This project supports Chiesi\u2019s growth in R&D, with over 20% of turnover allocated to it, making Chiesi a leader in R&D investment among Italian pharmaceutical companies.<\/p>\n \u201cToday, we inaugurate a center with a production site that projects us into a new path of care, allowing us to continue making a difference in serving people and families living \u201cAt Chiesi, innovation is at the heart of everything we do. The opening of our new Biotech Center marks a bold leap forward in our commitment to delivering groundbreaking therapies that truly transform patients’ lives. This center will elevate our production capabilities to new heights and reinforce our dedication to driving innovation. More than that, it will empower us to forge powerful collaborations and push the boundaries of what\u2019s possible in patient\u2019s care\u201d, said Giuseppe Accogli, CEO at Chiesi.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Today\u2019s event celebrated Chiesi\u2019s dedication to research in Italy, highlighting ongoing investments that create value and high-quality jobs.
