(1) Set up of a new spin-off: Ona Therapeutics. Ona Therapeutics is specialised in the discovery and development of therapeutic biologics targeting metastatic tumour-initiating cells and lipid metabolism. This therapeutic approach has the potential to prevent the formation of metastases and eliminate existing ones in multiple types of cancer.

(2) New Drug Discovery Guidelines and approval of new internal regulations for IPR and Spin-offs.

(3) Program product of Industria del Coneixement de l’AGAUR, Caixaimpulse de la FBLC, Gínjol del i-CERCA.
