PharmaTech's main business

PharmaTech's main business can be divided into two parts, including preclinical CRO and CMO/CDMO, CRO is known in English as Contract Research Organization, which translates to "Contract Research Organization".

It is in order to reduce costs and improve competitiveness, drug companies gradually delegate the time-consuming and laborious work in new drug development in the form of contracts to specialized organizations for research and development.

Wealthcare's other main business, CMO, is known as Contact Manufacturing Organization (CMO), which translates to "pharmaceutical manufacturing outsourcing service enterprise" in Chinese. CMOs outsource the "mass production" of pharmaceuticals on a contractual basis. The creation of these outsourcing business models is essentially the inevitable product of the social division of labor, making the overall cost of new drug development lower and more efficient.
