Canada, adding to the growing life sciences industry in the Toronto Region.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Zifo Technologies Inc. has launched its first Canadian office and operational headquarters in Mississauga, Ontario, with the goal of catering to the rising demand for dedicated local support. It\u2019s wholly owned Canadian subsidiary plans to deliver excellence and offer services in three key regions across the country \u2013 Vancouver, Montreal, and the Toronto Region. It works across research, development, manufacturing, and clinical domains with expertise in over 90 partner technologies. From its new operational headquarters in Mississauga, it will serve customers from a wide range of industries, including Pharma\/Biotech\/Clinical Research Organizations (CRO), Industrial Chemicals and Oil\/Gas, Consumer Goods, and Food and Beverage.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Why did Zifo choose Mississauga, Ontario, Canada?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Zifo has been growing aggressively in the U.S., and with Canada\u2019s global pharma market share, the company knew a Canadian expansion would be central to its strategy. Canada has a 2 per cent share of the global pharma market, making our country the 10<sup>th<\/sup> largest pharma market in the world. Several leading multi-national life science, biotech, and biomedical companies operate out of Canada and undertake R&amp;D to develop new or improved patented drugs and therapies. Moreover, Canada\u2019s proximity to our southern neighbours, shared time zones with the U.S. market, and progressive immigration system makes our country a favourable nearshore choice for servicing Zifo\u2019s U.S. customer base.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s Canadian operational headquarters was strategically placed, with the organization carefully selecting Mississauga to be the location for this expansion. For Zifo, the choice was clear: Mississauga, with its mature life sciences, pharmaceutical, and biotech ecosystem, and an established talent pipeline, is the ideal location for the expansion of its operations. In Mississauga alone, there are approximately 500 life sciences companies and 25,000 employees in the life sciences industry. This area has become known as \u201cPill Hill\u201d within the pharma community \u2013 more than half of Canada\u2019s pharmaceutical companies are based here! It\u2019s office will be co-located with pharma giants such as Amgen, Astra Zeneca, Baxter, GSK, Pfizer and Roche, and other small and medium sized pharma and biotech companies.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Life Sciences in the Toronto Region<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Take a look at the current geographical landscape below, which breaks down the regional strengths and investment opportunities within the life sciences industry:<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re pleased to welcome Zifo RnD to Ontario\u2019s vibrant life sciences ecosystem,\u201d says Jason Field, President and CEO of <a href=\"https:\/\/lifesciencesontario.ca\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Life Sciences Ontario (LSO)<\/a>. \u201cOur robust talent pipeline, research expertise, and infrastructure have positioned the Toronto Region, and Ontario, as a leading location for major global life sciences and biotech firms, like RnD.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What\u2019s next for Zifo?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><\/p>\n<p>Its motto, &#8220;Curiosity is in our DNA,&#8221; has driven the organization to further invest in the Toronto Region.<br>&#8220;Canada is a top nation with a lot of support and progress in the R&amp;D field.
