After the visit, representatives from consulates and chambers of commerce exchanged views with the management team of Biosyngen on the characteristics of products, advanced and differentiated technologies, the international environment of biopharmaceutical industry, as well as supporting strategies, intellectual property protection, international talent exchange and cooperation of enterprises in CSGKC.

Mr. Loh Tuck Keat, Consul General of Singapore in Guangzhou said, it is very gratifying to see that Biosyngen has gained such rapid development in the CSGKC. Singapore, as the first ASEAN member country to complete the official approval process of RCEP, will focus on promoting all-round and deep cooperation between China and ASEAN.

In biomedicine, he mentioned that, the RCEP has reduced tariffs on products related to the biomedical industry, as well as the cost of exporting some of China’s advantageous products to the markets of the parties to the agreement, ultimately benefiting the people of the member countries. It also helped strengthen ties with global supply chains, enhance the resilience of industrial chains and supply chains, highlight the advantages of financing, reduce uncertainties in foreign investment and cooperation among Chinese enterprises. Biosyngen is the link of ChinaSingapore cooperation. The more open, diversified, friendly and convenient environment created by RCEP is conducive for Biosyngen to promote intra-regional pharmaceutical R&D cooperation, to deeply integrate into the global industry.

The CSGKC is attractive because of its continuous development momentum.

As an enterprise rooted in the CSGKC, Biosyngen will give full play to its special role of “pioneer, leader and demonstrator” in the innovation-driven development strategy and become a new model of ChinaSingapore cooperation and high-quality development.
