Technology Partnerships

BioInvent has entered into several partnerships around the development and manufacturing of antibodies.

Antibody development partnerships typically involve BioInvent utilising its proprietary n-CoDeR^® technology to identify antibodies that can bind to partners' selected targets. Selected antibodies are further developed either by the partner alone or as part of a continued collaboration with BioInvent. BioInvent receives milestone payments and royalties on sales from these projects.  Partners to date include Bayer, Daiichi Sankyo, and Mitsubishi Tanabe.
