▶Introduction of Genome & Company
Genome & Company is a global pharmaceutical and bio company that focuses on 1) microbiome therapeutics and consumer products and 2) new drug target-based anticancer drugs based on ample clinical data and Multi-Omics technology since its establishment in 2015. In particular, we are focusing on developing next-generation innovative new drugs in the fields of the microbiome and new target anti-cancer drugs to meet the medical demand of cancer patients which was unmet due to a lack of existing cytotoxic anticancer drugs and targeted anti-cancer drugs. In the future, Genome & Company will not only accelerate R&D of innovative treatments with high demand using microbiome and new targets but also expand the capabilities related to production and commercialization to grow into a Fully Integrated Pharmaceutical Company.
