Pivot Park and Spinnovation Analytical join forces

Spinnovation Analytical B.V. is to supply analytical services to the newly established Pivot Park Life Sciences Community (The Netherlands) located on the former Organon/Schering Plough/MSD research site in Oss. The park is a centre for open-innovation, where facilities, instruments and knowledge are made available to the pharmaceutical and biotech companies based on the site.

Spinnovation will support small-molecule pharmaceutical and the biopharmaceutical industries through its portfolio of analytical services for medicinal chemists focused on discovery programs and pre-clinical development, as well as those of Contract Manufacturing Organisations (CMOs), by supporting Chemistry Manufacturing Control (CMC) activities. Spinnovation will add to the platform at Pivot Park by providing 500MHz NMR, ESI-TOF MS, HPLCs, LC-SPE and ICP-OES instruments.

The advanced facilities available at Pivot Park will also help Spinnovation to further strengthen and develop Spinnovation Biologics, a service offered to the European and US biopharmaceutical industry dedicated to the support of upstream process development.

“We are very excited to welcome Spinnovation who will facilitate access to advanced analytical applications for the Pivot Park tenants,” commented Alie Tigchelhoff, Director of Pivot Park. “We have full confidence that Spinnovation’s exceptional analytical solutions will support the growth of our companies and the spirit of research and development which the park has been designed for.”

Frederic Girard, CEO of Spinnovation Analytical, said, “We are very pleased to be collaborating with Pivot Park and its members. We look forward to contributing to the success of the park and the exciting ventures and projects of its members through providing access to our unique range of solutions and expertise, as well as developing the unique services provided by Spinnovation Biologics.”
