Set-up and CMO's

Setting up production in Medicon Valley
Among the attractive features of Medicon Valley is the availability of sites with the necessary infrastructure such as water, existing sewer system and broadband access. A number of permits have to be granted before a company can start building production facilities and commence production, but the authorities can generally be characterised as both flexible and efficient.

The quality of construction work is high in Medicon Valley, and special competencies within the construction of pharmaceutical and biotech production facilities are found in the region. Validation is critical for pharmaceutical companies and in Medicon Valley this process is short.

Contract Manufacturing Organisations (CMOs)
Contract manufacturing is offered by a number of companies in Medicon Valley. Both sterile and non-sterile products are produced, as are small chemicals such as monoclonal antibodies and large molecules such as enzymes and proteins, the latter being a particular stronghold of Medicon Valley.
