3 WELCOME TO COBIS Copenhagen Bio Science Park is the ideal place to be for biotech companies, offering a professional environment to help bring your business to the next level. Our location is perfect. We are centrally placed between Denmark s leading hospitals and major universities - in the heart of Medicon Valley, the world s leading biotech region, and just minutes from the center of Copenhagen. The facility itself is exceptional: A 12,000 m2 building of modern architecture complete with lab facilities, offices and service areas. COBIS is home to a powerful mix of national and international organizations, housing start-ups, mid-size companies and tech trans professionals within life science. We can t wait to meet you! Morten Mølgaard Jensen, CEO, COBIS A/S 3

4 Meet our companies Some of the most promising new biotech and life science startups in Denmark are located at COBIS. Highly skilled, professional in development, and fun to be around they are the heart and blood of the science park and probably the main reasons you should consider choosing COBIS as your next location. More than 70 companies have already chosen COBIS - why not join them! 4

5 Protecting your idea can be a daunting task. Our experts help secure your patents and trademarks, and assist you all the way from the drawing board, until your product hits the shelves. HØIBERG is a full service patent and trademark company providing services within the areas of Intellectual Property Rights (IPR), including Patents, Trademarks and Designs, Innovation Management, Technology Transfer and Business Development. We counsel public research institutions as well as private companies, and our clients range from small independent start-ups with a single patent to large multinational companies with extensive IPR portfolios. We provide expert IPR knowledge in the fields ranging from biotech, medtech, nanotech, chemistry and cleantech to software, electronics and mechanics. We assist you at every stage of development from idea to realisation.

6 6 I have been part of the COBIS community for four years and have benefitted tremendously from the active network in and around COBIS. The science park is a perfect meeting place for life science entrepreneurs, both young and more experienced, to do business. Hans Schambye, CEO, Galecto Biotech

7 Network is COBIS most important asset Want to boost your company growth? We believe that participating in a professional network helps a company grow faster than its competitors. The network we have built in and around COBIS gives your company a considerable advantage, creating an environment which by definition promotes research and interaction. At your fingertips, inhouse, will be the accumulated experience of a host of companies in your field. COBIS will provide you with direct access to the individual networks that suit you and your business. And, there are, of course, all the unofficial networks that arise organically as companies meet and share information and ideas. At COBIS, we also offer you access to the relevant seminars and social activities that help support the network across the science park. COBIS has close ties to universities both in Denmark and throughout the rest of the world, as well as other key research facilities, to supply your company with the most groundbreaking knowledge, investigation and analysis. 7

8 We joined COBIS in February 2015 when establishing our company, Biomatics Technology, with a base also in Copenhagen. Being close to many young biotech companies in COBIS gave us a brilliant platform for sharing knowledge and gaining a head start in our business development. Christian W. Lysholm, Biomatics Technology 8

9 Business development for innovative life science projects Have you developed a new product or service and need help getting it quickly and efficiently to the market?

11 Flexibility is the key At COBIS, you will have access to office facilities and modern laboratories at the highest international standards, with the flexibility to scale up or down according to your needs. Part of the COBIS philosophy is giving you the freedom to easily expand or reduce your area in the science park, providing offices that always meet your needs. COBIS also offer laboratory facilities suited to research in gene technology and radioactivity. The laboratories are designed to fit your equipment, and if necessary, we can help you acquire fume hoods, benches, incubators etc. - anything you need to conduct first-class research. Orphazyme moved to COBIS in April 2010 and has had significant growth ever since. With our demands for flexibility, COBIS has been a valuable partner as our need for more space and services have developed. Anders Hinsby, CEO, Orphazyme Flexibility also means that you don t pay for services you don t need. As your firm grows, other services might be relevant, and we can provide you with just what you need, just when you need it. 11

12 During the last few years, Biocare Copenhagen has had great success and are today one of the top-companies within probiotics and bacterial compounds. COBIS has assisted us in supporting our growth by offering flexible terms that has allowed us to expand our facilities. It is a great place for doing business and the facilities are perfect to our current needs. Jesper Gantzel, Biocare Copenhagen A/S In the heart of Medicon Valley COBIS is located in the heart Medicon Valley - of one of the world s leading biotech clusters. Medicon Valley is one of Europe s most prominent life science clusters. The entire pharmaceutical value chain in Medicon Valley is flourishing - from target identification through preclinical and clinical development to manufacturing itself. The R&D process is helmed by companies within the bio or medical technology fields, and strongly supported by many specialized service providers - CROs, consultants and patent attorneys. More than 300 life science companies are currently located in Medicon Valley. Medicon Valley companies excel in many of the most commercially attractive therapeutic fields, such as diabetes, neuroscience, inflammation, protein and cancer research. Add to this an increasing amount of regional and foreign investments in Medicon Valley, and the result is a prosperous cluster with many very successful biotech companies. There are a multitude of reasons why Medicon Valley has the world s attention. 12

13 Your gateway to an international presence As COBIS becomes an increasingly renowned global player, we offer you access not just to Danish companies, but companies from all around the world. This way, we can help you penetrate global markets more efficiently, and establish a strong international presence. Through programs such as Accelerace Life and Universal Partnerships we are able to open doors on both European and overseas markets, and even potentially co-fund your business idea. With us at your back, you will be fully prepared to explore global markets, set up relations with foreign businesses, secure international venture capital, all the while focusing entirely on growth. 13

14 As a new startup company, we need to be very cautious about our costs. COBIS understands that and has offered 3Dintegrated a cost effective solution with just a few desks in a great networking environment. It is the perfect way to start out. Henriette Kirkegaard, 3Dintegrated 14

19 Homage to our founders COBIS is the grand result of the political vision of the Ministry of Science, Innovation and Higher Education, and the Capital Region of Denmark to strengthen the biotechnological competences of the region.
