Nxera Pharma is the New Name for Sosei Group - Seite 2

Shinichi Tamura, Chairman of Nxera Pharma, added: “When I founded Sosei in 1990, I had a clear vision to create Japan’s first global biotechnology champion. I am extremely proud of what we have achieved since then and truly excited about what we, as Nxera Pharma, can deliver in the future, to our patients, partners, employees and shareholders, as this vision becomes a reality.

“Our Company would not be where it is today without the dedication and effort of our truly international team, primarily in Japan and the UK, but also with key groups in South Korea and Switzerland. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to all the ambitious and highly talented people who have contributed to and shaped our journey, positioning Nxera Pharma at the forefront of the next generation of biopharmaceutical companies in Japan improving the health of patients globally.”
