Vancouver, British Columbia – March 21, 2016 – Sirona Biochem Corp. (TSX-V: SBM) (Frankfurt/Xetra®: ZSB) (the “Company”) announces that its Chief Business Development Officer, Attila Hajdu, will be presenting at BIO-Europe Spring on April 4, 2016, at 10:00 AM CET at the Kistamässan Convention Center, Stockholm, Sweden.
The main goals for the conference include: seeking strategic partnerships and investment from big pharma to develop new superior drugs using Sirona’s innovative platform technology; exploring partnership opportunities with companies that have expressed interest in licensing our SGLT2 inhibitor for type 2 diabetes in markets outside of China (i.e. US, Russia, India) and finding partnerships to assist building the glycoprotein project pipeline.
“We remain focused on advancing our partnering discussions for our skin lightener SBM-TFC-1067, while we are continually expanding our product pipeline”, said Attila Hajdu, Chief Business Development Officer of Sirona Biochem. “Bioavailability and toxicity are the main reasons clinical programs fail in the current pharmaceutical environment, and we have a solution for this problem. That’s why we see a strong interest from big pharma in the application of our fluorine chemistry platform across multiple target programs to drive future growth”, he added.
