Biotalys Announces Strategic Refocusing to Cut Costs
Biotalys, an agricultural biotechnology company listed on Euronext, has announced plans for a strategic refocus aimed at concentrating its resources on priority programs and streamlining its operations. This reorientation includes a reduction of 30 positions and a decrease in operating expenses.
Biotalys plans to refocus its activities on its most advanced biofungicides, EVOCA NG and BioFun-6, while continuing to support its partnership programs: BioFun-7 with the Gates Foundation and BioIns-2 with Syngenta for insecticides. The company will also continue its development efforts to achieve commercially competitive manufacturing costs, leveraging its recently announced strategic partnership with 21st.BIO. The post-harvest market partnership with AgroFresh will be maintained. This refocusing is part of an approach to reduce risks associated with future commercialization efforts.
