This month, we had the honor of welcoming Lehendakari Imanol Pradales and key members of his government team to our facilities; Mikel Jauregi, Minister of Industry, Energy Transition and Sustainability; Juan Ignacio Pérez Iglesias, Minister of Science, University, and Innovation; and Jaione Ganzarain, Deputy Minister of Technology, Innovation, and Digital Transformation.
During their visit, we had the opportunity to share Viralgen’s mission of bringing advanced treatments to those who need them most, to showcase the science that takes place in our laboratories and give insights on AAVs (Adeno-Associated Virus vectors) manufacturing process, critical to gene therapies.
We are deeply grateful to have hosted these important visitors/ stakeholders and appreciate the continuous support critical for developing innovative therapies in the Basque country. This visit strengthens our commitment to health and innovation, as we work together to advance progress in the field of gene therapies.
