JOHANNESBURG, SOUTH AFRICA – EQS Newswire – 5 August 2020 – The African Energy Chamber is delighted to announce the nomination of its Investment Advisory Committee, the last body to serve on its Advisory Board for 2020 and 2021. Its members include:
René Awambeng, Global Head, Client Relations, Afreximbank Rolake Akinkugbe-Filani, Managing Director, EnergyInc Advisors and Senior Africa Advisor, IFU Danish Investment Fund Abongwa Ndumu, Former Oil Executive and Energy Consultant Robert Erlich, Partner and Executive Director – Upstream, Cayo Energy LP Folarin Lajumoke, Vice President – Africa, ION Nosizwe Nokwe-Macamo, Executive Chairman & Founder, Raise Africa Investments Rachelle Yayi, CEO, Afara Solutions
Members of the Investment Committee serve in their personal capacity and gather a wide range of expertise in finance, legal and consulting. Together, they will play a key role in supporting the African Energy Chamber’s investment outreach initiatives.
With billions of dollars required every year to upgrade its energy infrastructure and fight energy poverty, the continent needs to successfully mobilize a wide variety of capital and financing. In doing so, African energy markets should be engaging with a broader range of capital providers, from traditional lenders to global institutional investors and private equity firms to venture capitalists. The energy resurgence of the continent following the Covid-19 will require all stakeholders to come together and find new ways to structuring deals and raising capital for the benefits of local economies and jobs creation.
“Our Investment Committee is central to the African Energy Chamber’s objective of providing a bridge between investors and the continent’s energy industry. Africa has limitless investment opportunities across energy sources and across value-chains, and there is a pressing need to communicate better with financiers and investors to increase investments in the continent,” stated NJ Ayuk, Executive Chairman at the African Energy Chamber. “The African Energy Chamber has made it its mission to boost capital and technology inflow on the continent, from engaging with new capital providers interested in Africa to advising on the structuring of better and future deals,” he concluded.
Landmark gas projects across Africa have managed to attract regional and global capital in recent months and years. From Senegal to Mozambique and Equatorial Guinea, Africa has demonstrated its ability to attract funding. However, investment is still falling short of market needs. While Nigeria’s ongoing Marginal Fields Bidding Round stands to be a success, access to financing the development of such fields will remain a key challenge for the operators. African Energy companies in Nigeria, Cameroon, Gabon, Ghana, Mozambique and South Sudan, Uganda and South Africa continue to see capital as their biggest obstacle when it comes to developing African natural resources or even competing for service contracts.
Rentschler Biopharma to provide cGMP manufacturing
services for mRNA-based vaccine candidate, developed by BioNTech and
Pfizer against SARS-CoV-2
Commercial production will be conducted in Laupheim,
Germany
Rentschler Biopharma’s innovative and highly flexible
business model enables fast, high-quality, large-scale manufacturing for
commercial supply as well as small batch production for clinical trials
for other BioNTech RNA product candidates
LAUPHEIM, GERMANY and MILFORD, MA, USA – EQS Newswire
– 8 October 2020 – Rentschler
Biopharma SE, a leading global contract development and manufacturing
organization (CDMO) for biopharmaceuticals, today announced an agreement to
serve as CDMO partner for BioNTech. As an initial project, Rentschler Biopharma
will be responsible for key aspects of cGMP (current good
manufacturing practice) drug substance manufacturing of BNT162b2, the
mRNA-based vaccine against SARS-CoV-2 that is being developed by Pfizer and
BioNTech, and is currently in a global Phase 3 clinical trial.
Under the agreement, Rentschler Biopharma will
be responsible for downstream processing to provide highly
purified drug substance. Process and product-related impurities will be
effectively removed from the intermediate pool, which has been previously
derived from mRNA synthesis. This is an important step in ensuring the safety
and tolerability of a vaccine for use in humans, while at the same time
maximizing the amount of mRNA harvested from the initial production process.
Rentschler Biopharma will produce purified drug substance at its headquarters
in Laupheim, Germany.
Dr. Frank Mathias, CEO of Rentschler Biopharma,
said: “We are honored to contribute to BioNTech’s ‘Project Lightspeed’ and
their work in developing this highly innovative mRNA vaccine. To tackle the
COVID-19 pandemic, it is critical to bring high-quality, safe and effective
vaccines to the public quickly and on a large scale. At Rentschler Biopharma,
we feel it is important to do our part in combatting this virus. As a cGMP
service provider with more than 40 years of proven manufacturing expertise, we
are well suited to work with BioNTech to make their ground-breaking science a
medical reality and will work tirelessly to this end.”
BioNTech and Rentschler Biopharma will use an
innovative business model that is well suited for novel, urgently needed
technologies and allows maximum flexibility to address BioNTech’s development
and manufacturing requirements. In addition to large-scale production services
for the COVID-19 vaccine, the agreement also provides for small-batch
manufacturing of BioNTech’s other RNA programs for use in clinical trials.
Federico Pollano, SVP Global Business
Development of Rentschler Biopharma, added:“We are excited to
have the opportunity to work with BioNTech on this urgent project, as well as
over the long term. A critical success factor in all the projects we take on at
Rentschler Biopharma is close collaboration with our clients. Working in
partnership with BioNTech, we determined that the best way to address their
COVID-19 vaccine drug substance manufacturing needs was to establish a
dedicated mRNA production suite for them in our Laupheim facility. This
approach ensures capacity, staff and equipment are ready when needed without
interruption of other ongoing projects at our site. It is also an approach that
is quickly and easily scalable to meet future demands.”
