Technology Transfer.
Can medicines be made where they are needed?
We believe they can.
Unimed brings proven pharmaceutical formulations and manufacturing know how from established producers to manufacturers in the countries that need them most. We manage every step, so essential medicines can be made locally, registered nationally and supplied for years to come.
Our technology transfer.
Many countries still import most of the medicines their health systems rely on. That leaves supply exposed to price shocks, currency pressure and disrupted shipping, and it keeps manufacturing skills and jobs elsewhere.
Why local manufacturing.
Technology transfer changes that. A manufacturer that already makes a product to a high standard hands over the formulation, the process and the knowledge needed to make it, and a local manufacturer is trained to produce it to the same quality.
Unimed sits between the two. We find and qualify the right technology owner, structure the agreements, run the transfer programme and secure the supply of active ingredients afterwards. Our clients deal with one accountable partner from start to finish.
Supply security.
Medicines made in country are less exposed to global shortages, freight disruption and export restrictions.
Faster response.
A national manufacturer can scale output when demand changes, instead of waiting on international lead times.
Lower long term cost.
Local production reduces freight, import duty and foreign exchange outflows over the life of a programme.
Skills and jobs.
Every transfer trains production, quality control and regulatory teams, building capability that stays in the country.
Regional markets.
Products made to international quality standards can serve neighbouring countries and pooled procurement mechanisms.
Health sovereignty.
Governments gain more control over the medicines their national programmes depend on.
