BiocoreGlobal Pharmaceuticals Pre-AP Project
Biocore Global Pharmaceuticalsis a multi-billion genetic bioengineering company specializing in the research & development of medications that treat people with genetic disorders and they are looking for newmedications.
Objective:
Your company is going to have 3-5 minutes in order to “pitch” (present) your medication and explain how it will cure the genetic disorder in which your company specializes in. How will your company “Cure the World of Genetic Disorders?”
B.G.P. representative(s) will be looking to fund only medicationsthat are feasible (in theory should work), so you may want to include as much scientific data as possible and explain how your drug will work in order to convince them that your medicationis not just conceptual. If selected, your company will receive unlimited funding over a ten year period in order to further research your medication and begin trial testing on live subjects. After which time the medication will be marketed by “Biocore Global Pharmaceuticals” and made available to the public sector. Good luck and remember you are our only hope to rid this world of genetic disorders.
