Specializing in lentiviral and retroviral vectors, Genezen offers early-phase process development, GMP vector production, analytical testing services and assay development. Leveraging the expansive knowledge and experience of its team, Genezen accelerates cell and gene therapies to commercialization and helps deliver life-changing therapeutics to patients.
Founded in 2014, the company strives to make viral vector production accessible to early-stage, growth-oriented companies and established industry leaders.
Genezen operates out of a 75,000-square-foot, state-of-the-art, cGMP-compliant lentiviral and retroviral vector production facility. Situated in the fast-growing life sciences hub of Indianapolis, the laboratory is the second phase of a larger cGMP-compliant lentiviral and retroviral vector production facility, which will house multiple cGMP production suites with capabilities for host cell expansion and banking and viral vector production.
