How important is the life sciences industry to the economy of the canton of Fribourg? To get a precise answer to this question, the Groupement Romand de l'Industrie Pharmaceutique (GRIP-Pharma), the Promotion économique du canton de Fribourg (PromFR) and life science companies operating in the canton of Fribourg (CSL Vifor, Grifols, OM Pharma, UCB and Verfora) have, as part of a public-private partnership, commissioned BAK Economics to carry out a study of the key players in this sector.
