PHARMACEUTICALS
The need for drug discovery is very important from the
perspective of global economic health.
The worldwide pharmaceutical market currently valued as € 650
billion per annum and projected to be worth € 800 billion in
2020.
The future growth rates for pharmaceuticals in developed
nations is estimated to be 5-7% per year, while in emerging
markets (BRIC), the growth rate is estimated to attain 15% per
year.

Big Risk for Pharmaceutical Industry
It can take as long as 15-20 years and cost as much as $800
million to develop and market a new drug.
For every 5000 novel compounds found to have biomedical
potential, an average of only five make it into clinical trials, and
only one will receive final approval for commercial patient use.
Experimental medicines are more likely to fail
than to succeed.

COSMECEUTICALS
The European market for COSMETICS is booming and it is the
biggest in the world.
The trend is moving towards cosmetic natural products, in
particular those derived from plants and marine organisms.
Consumers are turning to natural and organic products as they
become aware of the possible dangers of parabens, phthalates
and other synthetic ingredients in cosmetics & toiletries.
The European natural cosmetics market continues to grow at a
healthy rate with revenues forecast o approach € 2 billion in
2010.

VENUCEANE™ (Sederma)
VENUCEANE™ is a biotechnological product (extremozymes) obtained
from the culture of Thermus thermophilus.
Thermus thermophilus is a thermophile bacterium (“Extremophile”) which
thrives at 80ºC and under 200 bars pressure (at a depth of 2500 meters).
Fermentation of Thermus thermophilus is possible at an industrial scale,
at a high temperature under atmospheric conditions.

Academic –Industry Partnership
The pipelines of the major pharmaceutical companies (Big Pharma)
are shockingly depleted as they avoid the high costs and high risk of
developing new drugs.
At present, the big pharma have a desperate need to in-license
products from external sources.
This has created an opportunity for new model of academic-industry
partnership.
Academic research has traditionally been the home of research
innovation and universities offer highly skilled workforce and also
access to cost-effective infrastructure.

Micropharma
are academia-originated, biotech startup companies that are
efficients, flexible, innovative, product-focused and small
(having less than 25, and frequently less than 10 employees)
might arise from universities, hospitals or research institutes.
They are created by 2 or 3 academic researchers who join
force to design, discover and develop new therapeutics (or
diagnostics) for human health disorders
typically focused on one or perhaps two, related diseases
Permits high-risk approaches and demonstrates
impressive capacity to absorb both success and failure

The five golden goals of micropharma
1. To achieve a product (a therapeutic or diagnostic agent) that has
efficacy in a recognized animal model of a relevant human disease
2. To have insights into the mechanism of action of this agent at a
molecular and/or macromolecular level that enables rational
optimization of the agent
3. To have preliminary data pertaining to the pharmacokinetics of the
agent
4. To have preliminary data pertaining to the toxicology of the agent
5. To protect the intellectual property embodied within the agent
through a patent strategy that optimally includes composition of
matter, means of production and use
