In 2010 the company entered into a strategic partnership with one of the largest vertically integrated pharmaceutical holdings in Russia – R-Pharm Group (http://r-pharm.com/en/). Under the partnership Drugs Technology started R&D and manufacturing of generic drugs much-needed in Russian Public HealthCare System (Specialty/Hospital) where R-Pharm is a market leader.
