I am thrilled to announce the start of the construction of a state-of-the-art research & development (R&D) facility at our ��Ա�-��’A��ܻ� Campus. The new facility, known as the Arkelia project is a milestone of our long-term strategy to push the boundaries of science and deliver life-changing solutions for people living with severe diseases worldwide.

Designed to connect seamlessly with the company’s gene therapy center and key neurology research infrastructure, Arkelia will foster collaboration, accelerate advancements in research and development, and drive innovation in manufacturing. With a research focus on neurodegeneration, neuroinflammation, epilepsy, and early-stage development, this facility will strengthen ��ֳ�’s global leadership in pioneering solutions for patients.

Accommodating more than 170 scientists, the facility is built to encourage cross-disciplinary collaboration while leveraging cutting-edge technology and advanced scientific tools to enhance R&D capabilities. More than just a workspace, it will serve as a dynamic ecosystem that fosters scientific creativity and accelerates the development of transformative therapies.

Crucially, Arkelia underscores ��ֳ�’s unwavering commitment to sustainability. Designed to the highest eco-standards, the facility will incorporate energy-efficient systems, renewable energy sources, and sustainable materials to minimize its environmental footprint. By integrating green technologies, we are ensuring that scientific advancement goes hand in hand with environmental responsibility.

This initiative significantly contributes to the growth strategy of the Braine-l'Alleud Campus, reinforcing collaboration between research, development, manufacturing, and supply teams. The facility’s flexible and forward-thinking design will align critical phases of innovation, ensuring accelerated progress while prioritizing sustainability.

Set to become fully operational by 2028, Arkelia marks a significant milestone in ��ֳ�’s sustainable growth journey. It reflects our ongoing dedication to delivering high-impact solutions while upholding our responsibility to the planet.

Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to drive innovation forward at ��ֳ�.
