Astellas launches in Australia
July 14, 2011
THE first Japanese
pharmaceutical company to
ever operate in Australia has
opened its doors in NSW,
Astellas Pharma.
The new operations, based in
North Ryde, are set to bolster
local employment as well as
research and development, and
in the future will introduce
“important new medications”
to the Australian market.
“We are extremely pleased to
be expanding our operation
into Australia,” said Masaaki
Usui, Managing Director for
Astellas Pharma (Australia).
“Firstly, and most
importantly, this allows us to
provide innovative solutions to
local patients with conditions
where significant unmet
medical needs still exist.
“Additionally, this also places
us in a country where there is
significant respect and
recognition on a global level –
in terms of quality research,
highly skilled medical
professionals and extremely
diligent and sophisticated
regulatory processes,” he
added.
Astellas Pharama is the
second largest Japanese
pharmaceutical company in the
world, and operates in 40
countries with a worldwide
workforce of 17,000.
