Strengthening the Development Community Through Partnership

Academic institutions, pharmaceutical and biotech companies, funding agencies, and venture capital firms can look to us to improve results, reduce risk, and provide a responsible, transparent means to invest in academic drug-development projects. From the outset, the Centre for Drug Research and Development instills scientific and business discipline into the development process, with a focus on commercialization that optimizes resources. The benefits of partnership include:

  • Access to an extensive innovation network for development, collaboration, and potential pipeline candidates
  • Augmentation of research and development capacity, including access to drug-development expertise and infrastructure
  • Reduced risk by combining scientific rigour with commercial expertise
  • Improved accountability through project management
  • Increased chances for commercial success
