Accelera: the New Brand of NMS
Nerviano Medical Sciences (NMS) Announces the Launch of Accelera: The New Brand of NMS - Preclinical Development
Nerviano, 8 March 2007 - Nerviano Medical Sciences (NMS) are pleased to announce the renaming and branding of NMS Preclinical Development. From March 1st 2007, NMS Preclinical Development has been renamed Accelera (www.accelera.info).
As part of the spin off of NMS from Pfizer in May 2004, NMS Preclinical Development was formed with the mission to provide the highest quality contract services to the worldwide pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries. The transition from mainstream pharmaceutical to a Contract Research Organization (CRO) has been both rapid and successful; performance highlights include:
"As we have grown, Accelera have continuously striven to improve how we communicate with our customers and potential new customers", said Dr. Marco Brughera, Vice President of Accelera. "With our sponsors at the forefront of our minds, it is therefore with great pleasure that we are able to announce this important step in our development"
Accelera will continue to provide the broad range of services and expertise offered under the previous brand, while this change will have no impact on existing contractual relationships, or past, ongoing or planned studies.
The new brand and logo, with its own distinctive personality while maintaining its links to NMS, made its debut at the recent Bio-Europe Spring meeting in Milan (5-7 March), and will next be seen at the Society of Toxicology meeting in Charlotte, NC (26-29 March).
"These changes represent a new stage in the growth of Accelera, and for Nerviano Medical Sciences", added Dr. Giampiero Duglio, C.E.O. of Nerviano Medical Sciences. "Everyone at Accelera appreciates the continued support of our clients, and look forward to future collaborations to meet the drug development needs of the worldwide pharmaceutical and biotechnology industries."
