Grant opportunity from the Gates Foundation

Posted on 25/01/2017

TOPRA has been advised by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation of a Request for Proposal (RFP) which they intend to release at the end of January.

The Foundation are looking for a long-term partner to host and maintain a Chemistry, Manufacturing and Controls (CMC) Regulatory Requirements Database. It will focus on CMC regulatory requirements for drugs, including requirements in low and middle income countries (LMICs).

The database will also serve as a resource for product developers to address CMC regulatory requirements, facilitating more timely delivery of cost-effective, high-quality drug products.

Their ideal partner will have the technological and business capabilities necessary for the sustained success of this project, and a commitment to underserved markets. There is no predetermined grant amount and applicants will be asked to propose the amount required for the success of the project.

If you would be interested in receiving the RFP for your business or would like more information with a view to applying, please email Lynda.
