Pharm Aid has been set up by Russia’s Nacimbio together with Ishvan Pharmaceuticals, for the localization of innovative vaccine production in Russia.

“We welcome this opportunity to participate in and partner biotech opportunities in the Russian Federation market. In Pharm Aid and Nacimbio, we have found a reliable partner, representing one of the largest state corporations. As an innovation-driven global healthcare player our aim has always been to bridge unmet healthcare needs by improving accessibility to preventives and novel therapies. By being a technology enabler, I believe we are taking yet another important step in realizing this mission,” said Dr Sharvil Patel, managing director of Zydus Cadila.
