This is the fifth consecutive year that a Biocon Group company has made it to the Asia lP ELITE list, which recognizes companies across the Asia-Pacific region that demonstrate a sustained commitment to building best-in-class in-house lP functions and continuous excellence in lP value creation.

Biocon Biologics is leveraging its robust in-house Intellectual Property (IP) strategy and capabilities to enable  early entry of biosimilar products to meet patient needs in global markets

Biocon Biologics’ IP team, was honoured at the latest edition of the IP Business Congress Asia, which is hosted by Intellectual Asset Management (IAM), the publishers of the world’s leading IP magazine IAM.

A record 80 organisations around the Asia-Pacific region featured in this year’s event, which was organized after a gap of two years.

“Biocon Biologics is a prime example of an Indian life sciences company that is built on R&D and innovation, even if much of its focus is based around challenging the entrenched patent positions of brand-name drug companies,” the IAM Special Report said.

“Most recently, the organisation’s biosimilars business has made it a central player in some of the most consequential global patent disputes in the cutting-edge biologics area. Along with [its] partner Viatris, Biocon Biologics won landmark U.S. Food and Drug Administration interchangeability approval for its biosimilar insulin [glargine] product, following extensive patent litigation with Sanofi,” the report added.
