Biography
The interest of global MNCs in Dutch innovation has gathered steam in recent years with a flurry of M&A activity. 2015, for example, was notable for Amgen's headline-catching acquisition of Dezima and its lead cholesterol treatment to the tune of some USD 300 million. "Ten years ago, the Netherlands did not have a strong biotech climate. The types of innovation that emerge in companies like Dezima clearly demonstrate that times have changed," states Jasper van Grunsven, general manager of Amgen.
