Jean Marc-Allaire, CEO of Oxeltis, explains: “We are proud of this nomination. It brings recognition to the work and expertise of our team of chemists.”
Simultaneously, Oxeltis mutualized its expertise in partnership with two other companies from the Montpellier Métropole area that were assisted by the Montpellier BIC: Genepep, specializing in peptide and protein chemistry, and BCI-Pharma, a biotechnology company specializing in pharmaceutical research on small molecules. Together, the three companies will produce and commercialize new multi-functional libraries for the pharmaceutical market.   Founded in 2010 by former researchers at Idenix Pharmaceuticals, Oxeltis today is comprised of a team of 15 chemists and is based at the Biopôle Euromédecine science park. The company received assistance from Montpellier’s support organizations for young innovative companies, notably Montpellier BIC and Transferts LR. “Montpellier is an attractive city for hiring and getting young researchers started after their graduation or post-doc work. Also, by offering professional workspace for researchers, the buildings at Biopôle Euromédecine enable SMEs to consider setting up on site.”
