Genovis establishes subsidiary in the US


Genovis is establishing a wholly owned subsidiary headquartered in Cambridge,
Massachusetts, USA, to increase its presence in the North American market.
The subsidiary will sell all of the parent company's products on the North
American market, which today represents 60 percent of Genovis’ total sales.
Customers include the major pharmaceutical companies, which use the products to
screen new drug substances and for quality control in development and production
of new antibody-based drugs. The subsidiary will be headed by John M. Lindsay
and Philip Onigman, both of whom have extensive experience in sales and business
development in the Life Science market.

“We are now pursuing our strategy and establishing a presence with direct sales
in our largest market. Proximity to customers, accessible and skilled support, a
local warehouse and efficient deliveries are important cornerstones of our
offering. We are very pleased to have John Lindsay and Philip Onigman join us in
our US operations. Both are well-established and have extensive experience in
our industry. We look forward to an exciting and successful collaboration,” says
