Interserve<\/a> has been named as\u00a0preferred bidder for the new \u00a315m Medicines Manufacturing Innovation Centre<\/a> (MMIC) in Inchinnan, Renfrewshire<\/h2>\n

The centre will ensure the UK is a technology and innovation leader in small molecule pharmaceutical and fine chemical manufacturing, thereby boosting the competitiveness of both sectors.<\/p>\n

The development will be located near Glasgow Airport and will be led by CPI in partnership with the University of Strathclyde<\/a>, Scottish Enterprise, and founding industry partners, AstraZeneca and GlaxoSmithKline.<\/p>\n

The new manufacturing centre is funded by several sources including UK Research and Innovation<\/a> through the UK Industrial Strategy Challenge Fund<\/a>, Scottish Enterprise and founding industry partners GlaxoSmithKline and AstraZeneca.<\/p>\n

Support manufacture vaccines for Covid-19<\/h3>\n

Cameron Stewart, regional director at Interserve said: \u201cThe new centre at Inchinnan is a really exciting, innovative project where our strengths in the medical sector will hugely benefit the project.<\/p>\n

\u201cInterserve Constriction will bring our considerable experience and capabilities in delivering similar projects<\/a> like the National Biologics Manufacturing Centre for CPI in Darlington, which is currently supporting efforts to manufacture and formulate vaccines for Covid-19, and the Jack Copeland Centre in Edinburgh for the Scottish National Blood Transfusion Service<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“The Medicines Manufacturing Innovation Centre will be market-leading for the pharmaceutical industry and we are delighted that will be part of that.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nigel Perry, chief executive officer at CPI, said:\u00a0\u200b\u201cThe Medicines Manufacturing Innovation Centre will enhance the UK\u2019s existing competitive advantage by deepening the skills base and strengthening the rationale for companies to invest in new, highly productive medicines manufacturing.<\/p>\n

\u201cCPI is delighted to be working alongside the University of Strathclyde, Innovate UK<\/a>, Scottish Government and our industry partners to deliver this globally unique centre that will prepare the pharmaceutical supply chain for vital, next-generation medicines and further extend CPI\u2019s healthcare capabilities.\u201d<\/p>\n

Scottish Government minister for business, innovation and energy, Paul Wheelhouse, added: \u200b\u201cI am delighted that the Medicines Manufacturing Innovation Centre will be located in Scotland, given its potential to become a global centre of excellence and bringing significant benefits to Scotland\u2019s economy<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe location of the MMIC is also a very positive endorsement of Scotland\u2019s Life and Chemical Science sectors and will build on our internationally recognised strengths in both Research and Development and manufacturing.\u201d<\/p>\n
