DENKA TO ESTABLISH LIFE SCIENCE R&D BASE IN BIOPOLIS IN SINGAPORE




TOKYO, Aug 1 (Bernama) -- 


Denka Company Limited (hereinafter "Denka") announced on July 26 the establishment of Denka Life Innovation Research Private Limited (hereinafter "DLIR") in Biopolis, Singapore, with the aim of securing the Denka Group's first overseas R&D base specializing in the healthcare and life science field.

Acting on its policy of aiding in cutting-edge R&D activities, the Singaporean government established Biopolis, a complex designed to serve as a hub for vibrant biomedical research. Since its opening, there has been a successful push to recruit domestic and overseas research institutions and business corporations to set up facilities in the complex, and, at present, Biopolis is home to a large number of biomedical-related businesses' research centers in addition to a laboratory run by Singapore's Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*STAR). The setting is conducive to government-private collaboration with a focus on cutting-edge R&D. Denka itself has been engaged in ongoing joint research into such materials as functional resins and elastomers with A*STAR in the field of polymer science. When DLIR begins operations, Denka will launch a new collaborative project in the life science field.
