Board visits Applikon Biotech
Some time ago we visited sponsor Applikon Biotech in Delft! This company produces custom bio reactors from scratch. They start on the computermodels and end by transporting the reactors outside their quarters. The board of 2020 has enjoyed meeting Appikon Biotech!
MSD Animal Health visit
Two weeks ago the board of 2020 visited the head sponsor of CODON, MSD Animal Health. They traveled to the headquarters of the company in Boxmeer. MSD Animal Health produces various vaccins for animals. The visit was fun and has certainly tightened the bond between MSD Animal Health and CODON!
