Vikram Punia, President of the Pharmasyntez Group mentioned: “Development of pharmaceutical industry is very important both for the region and country in the whole. Pharmasyntez is a large company. We have been working for more than 20 years and developing actively, and we are not going to stop, we are ready to continue investments to the company’s development in the Region. The Irkutsk Region has good energy sources and the scientific component has been developed well.

Despite the fact that currently our company produces mainly generic drugs, within the next 5 years we are going to produce our own new drugs, which will be manufactured in our company only; there are no identical drugs in the world, and it is Pharmasyntez from the Irkutsk Region that will supply such drugs all over the world. We hope that a new leader of the Region will support us and assist in our development”.

The Head of the RF region promised to support the company in terms of legislation and practice. “This Company is very important for the Region, Igor Kobzev mentioned. “It concerns to high technologies, jobs, and taxes. The main thing is drug safety for the country. The manufacturing sites in Irkutsk, Bratsk, and Usolye-Sibirskoye will be considered mainstream for business generation in pharmaceutical industry”.
