Risk Partners Life Sciences Roundtable 2025, thank you very much! 

We congratulate Formycon AG on its successful uplisting to the Prime Standard of Deutsche Börse on November 12, 2024!

Welcome to the Prime Standard league: A new champion of life sciences and biosimilars has successfully made the step from the scale segment. We proudly congratulate Enno Spillner, Dr. Caroline Redeker, Daniel Marquard and the entire Formycon AG team on this great success and another important milestone on their way to becoming a global champion in the biosimilars sector!

Formycon AG specializes in the development of high-quality biosimilars, which represent a cost-effective alternative to original biopharmaceutical preparations. The company demonstrates its innovative strength particularly in the field of follow-on molecules and has successfully positioned itself as one of the leading suppliers of biosimilars. With its expertise in research and development, Formycon creates access to cutting-edge biopharmaceutical products that benefit patients worldwide and has now also attracted increasing interest from international investors. As a result, the company has now been listed in the Prime Standard.  

Risk Partners acted as Capital Markets Insurance Advisor in this transaction. Our team, consisting of Florian, Franziska and Björn, supported Formycon AG during the successful uplisting process from the Scale to the Prime Standard of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange on November 12, 2024.

We are particularly pleased to contribute our specialization and expertise as an insurance broker for life sciences and capital market transactions and to accompany a "neighbor" from the Planegg/Martinsried region.

Special thanks also go to our co-broker team at Dr. Ellwanger & Kramm GmbH & Co. KG, in particular Gregor Klingeler and Frieder Lang, for the trust they have placed in us and the great cooperation. If you have a similar project in mind and would appreciate our support, please do not hesitate to contact us about the added value of RP4brokers.
