VERSA Biomedical, before Specipig, is a pioneer Breeding and Biomedical Research Centre focused on the pig model. We breed miniature pigs and run in-vivo pig model preclinical studies for: - Medical device, tissue regeneration and new materials development: prototype, efficacy, biocompatibility, product knowledge, development and scientific evidence studies to attract investment and to develop the product. - Pharma preclinical development: efficacy, toxicology, pharmacokinetic, tolerance and proof of concept studies. We are GLP certified, have fully equipped surgery rooms and housing. Are experts on the pig model and we run stress management trainings with the animals to improve their welfare. We are at present working on the development on an Onco-pig model for use in preclinical studies.
● Versa Biomedical draws on Specipig's 13 years of experience as a preclinical CRO dedicated to designing flexible and personalized biomedical models. Thanks to this expertise, it will continue to offer innovative solutions to biomedical, pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and medical device companies.
● On its part, Specipig will focus on all activities related to the breeding and marketing of its own genetic line of miniature pigs, offering its services to other CROs.
● The goal of this strategic split is to enhance and reinforce the specialization of both companies, in order to provide a better service tailored to the specific needs of their clients. The differential value of Versa Biomedical + Specipig lies in the fact that they are two specialized companies in one.
At Vitae we research, formulate and manufacture at our own premises, scientific backet food supplements and medical devises. We sell all over Europe, Middle East, North Africa, South America and Canada
