Prominent biotech companies in New Zealand include Pacific Edge, Aroa Biosurgery, AFT Pharmaceuticals, Biocell Corporation, and Amaroq Therapeutics.
New Zealand is home to two of the top 100 100 life science and medicine universities, the University of Auckland and University of Otago. New Zealand also has a rich foundation in biotech.
Glaxo, part of global pharmaceutical giant, GSK (GlaxoSmithKline plc), was founded in the country. The global diary-nutrition company, a2 Milk Company, started as a small NZ biotech in New Zealand.
The major issues facing the biotech sector in New Zealand include lack of promotion of its biotech research, discoveries and the companies to the global market, as well as inadequate funding.
Most of the funding for biotech researches still come from their networks or the NZ government, unlike the Australian biotech sector that receives fundings from various sources.
