Deal Experts for Korean Biopharma

 

The Biopharma industry in South Korea has grown significantly in the past decade. Having traditionally focused on generics and manufacturing, the industry has now transformed into an engine of innovation driven by the country’s cutting-edge science and technology.

Despite this achievement, however, many South Korean biopharma companies have struggled to reap the rewards of their hard work due to the challenges in accessing the global market. A popular solution to overcoming those challenges has been partnering & alliances with global biopharma.
