Milan , Italy, November 29, 2010 – The American Chamber of Commerce in Italy rewards Aptuit with the “Transatlantic Award 2010” for the substantial investment in Italy with the acquisition of GlaxoSmithKline Research Centre of Verona.
The prestigious American award demonstrates the commitment of Aptuit to retain and further develop the impressive scientific talent at the Verona site, accumulated in more than twenty years.
The value of this award is even greater when you consider the profound crisis that pharmaceutical companies around the world are facing during this period.
"Aptuit is very honoured to receive this recognition from the American Chamber of Commerce," said Tim Tyson, CEO of Aptuit, arrived in Milan to receive the award -"with the acquisition of the Research Centre of GSK Verona, Aptuit expands significantly its scientific and operational capabilities. We are also committed to maintain and further develop the impressive scientific talent of the Verona Site and play a leading role in the Italian business community. To this end we are joining the most important Italian associations and are looking forward to collaborating with other members of the Italian business community.”
For the fifth consecutive year the AmCham organizes the “Transatlantic Award Gala Dinner” during which important personalities and business management who have distinguished themselves in furthering the development of transatlantic relations between Italy and the United States are rewarded.
