The Semmelweis University and Egis Pharmaceuticals PLC have agreed on an even closer cooperation than before. Our common goal is to further raise the standards of pharmaceutical R+D as well as pharmacist and doctor training by making use of the synergies in each other’s activities. As a result of the agreement, new health industrial innovations can be launched and the Semmelweis University can be extended with more practical educational and training elements that also meet the needs of the Hungarian pharmaceutical industry.

Egis has developed a new procedure for the dehalogenation of technological wastewaters. In 2018, the Swedish Chamber of Commerce in Hungary recognized the innovation with the Gran Prize Interdisciplinary Innovative award.
