PRAGUE – November 4, 2020: Zentiva has received the 2020 Global Generics & Biosimilars Bulletin Award in the category of EMEA Acquisition of the year. In Q2 2020, during the peak of the first wave of the COVID-19 crisis, Zentiva completed the acquisition of Alvogen CEE that brought together two of the leading branded generic and OTC businesses in the CEE region. This acquisition is already showing indicators of success and is supporting the journey of Zentiva and its strong ambition to grow while enlarging the commercial footprint of the company.
