In-licensing | Cytiva

Cytiva supports the pharmaceutical industry by providing key technologies and tools for cellular and protein research as well as equipment to support the manufacturing of biotherapeutics and cellular therapies. As part of our strategy to further enable life science research, we are actively seeking technologies that can complement our existing intellectual property and accelerate product development within our areas of interest, as further described below.

Our Areas of Interest

Biomanufacturing

We support clients with start-to-finish solutions for production of biotherapeutics such as antibodies and vaccines. This includes offerings of cell media and single-use equipment for biopharmaceutical production. Purification tools based on chromatography and filtration systems. Total single-use systems and turn-key enterprise solutions are also provided.

We are seeking:

Protein expression technologies
Cell culture media
Automation, sensors and software for process analysis
Chromatography resins and filtration devices for laboratory and manufacturing scale
Affinity ligands
Products and technologies that improve bioproduction processes

Cell and Gene Therapy Technologies

The field of cell therapies has shown rapid growth in the industry over the past few years, driven by dramatic clinical results. With Cytiva’s strength in biomanufacturing, we are well positioned to enable progress in the industry by providing technologies and services to support the entire workflow.

We are seeking:

Technologies, platforms (both hardware and software) as well as reagents and consumables relevant to the ex vivo cell therapy workflow
Technologies for scaled manufacturing of viral vectors (AAV, LV, RV)
Non-viral delivery technologies
Analytics: Analytical tools applicable to both cell therapy and gene therapy manufacturing workflows (e.g. empty vs. filled particle analysis tools)
Digital platforms for scheduling, logistics, and tracking of cell and gene therapies
Opportunities to partner with large pharma in a broader collaboration model

Protein Analytics

We provide instrumentation, assays and tools for protein and cellular research to catalyze drug discovery and development. We provide Biacore systems for label free protein interaction analysis (SPR) and imaging systems and consumables for rapid Western Blot analysis.

We are seeking:

Reagents, consumables and systems for protein expression, sample preparation, protein purification, identification and analysis
Protein-protein interaction technologies, such as surface plasmon resonance

We would be delighted to hear from you if you have a project or product idea in one of the areas of interest detailed above or listed in the flyer available here. Please only send us non-confidential information at this stage. If you know of an opportunity that may be of interest to us, please feel free to contact us.
