Glenn Haifer, Luina Bio chairman

Aus­tralian man­u­fac­tur­er ac­quired by cap­i­tal in­vest­ment firm with ex­pe­ri­ence in CD­MO space

An Aus­tralian CD­MO is look­ing at a new name and new hori­zons as a cap­i­tal in­vest­ment firm has ac­quired it.

Luina Bio, based in Dar­ra, Aus­tralia, a sub­urb of Bris­bane, has been ac­quired by Am­per­sand Cap­i­tal Part­ners, a health-cen­tered pri­vate eq­ui­ty firm that has ex­pe­ri­ence in the CD­MO are­na, and by Glenn Haifer, a biotech in­vestor and chair­man of the board at Luina.

The ac­qui­si­tion, for which the fi­nan­cial de­tails were not giv­en to End­points News, will see the com­pa­ny re­brand and change its name to Acur­aBio. In an email to End­points, Am­per­sand Cap­i­tal stat­ed that it ac­quired the com­pa­ny be­cause of its po­ten­tial and sci­en­tif­ic ex­pe­ri­ence.
