DuPont Crop Protection and two India-based custom-research
companies, GVK Biosciences
and Syngene International,
recently formed a strategic alliance partnership for discovery
chemistry services.
GVK Biosciences has been working with Crop Protection for more
than five years and has a dedicated discovery chemistry team
working on DuPont Research & Development (R&D) initiatives.
Syngene has been a preferred research service provider to Crop
Protection in the field of discovery chemistry and biology, and
now will provide integrated research services through its “one
box” model, covering a broad range of R&D technical capabilities
to support the DuPont discovery pipeline.
“In recognition of our long-standing relationship with our
strategic partners, we have taken the next step to further
advance our collaboration,” said Julia Wheeler, director, R&D,
Crop Protection. “These agreements will allow us to leverage
India's value advantage and continue to build an advanced and
cost-effective research and development pipeline in support of
our business growth objectives.” |
