Takara Bio Inc. began as the biomedical business unit of Takara Shuzo Co., Ltd. (now Takara Holdings Inc.).
Based on the Company’s mission – Contributing to the health of humankind through the development of revolutionary biotechnologies such as gene therapy – Takara Bio will focus on three business segments that utilize its core biotechnology and encourage broader expansion: the Bioindustry Business, the basis for stable earning providing research reagents, scientific instruments, and various contracted services to universities and companies around the world; the AgriBio Business, the segment being nurtured as the Company’s secondary profit-making business; the Gene Therapy Business, the segment that the Company views as the foundation for future growth developing and commercializing gene therapies for cancer.
