In the next four years, the company plans to start production of 29 more pharmaceutical products, informed Alexander Prokhorov, Head of the Department of investment and industrial policy of Moscow. “Next year, the company will launch the production of three types of drugs for the treatment of diabetes mellitus, and by 2024 - another 26 drugs against malignancy. The products planned for production are also included in the list of vital and essential medicines, which will allow selling the drugs of the capital manufacturer at affordable prices and significantly reduce dependence on imported analogues”, pointed Alexander Prokhorov. The company AMEDART has been a resident of SEZ Technopolis Moscow since mid-2019, added Gennady Degtev, CEO of SEZ Technopolis Moscow. “The company's production occupies almost 6 thousand square meters at the site in Pechatniki. Now the company employs over 40 employees. Resident status gives the company access to the main benefits - a zero rate on property and transport, as well as a reduced income tax. The company will be able to refinance the funds saved on benefits for new developments and improvement of the material and technical base”, noted the Head of Technopolis. ---------------------- Press service of the SEZ "Technopolis Moscow" Phone: +7 916 516-15-46 Mail: pr@technomoscow.ru [ mailto:pr@technomoscow.ru ] Subscribe to the SEZ "Technopolis Moscow" in social networks, follow the main news of the SEZ in telegram-channel [ https://t.me/technopolismoscow ]  and receive all the most important news delivered to your mail in our weekly newsletter [ http://events.technomoscow.ru/subscribe/?utm_source=site_technomoscow ] .
