Bad Vilbel, October 11, 2018 – STADA Arzneimittel AG fared well at this year's Global Generics & Biosimilars Awards and was named "Company of the Year, EMEA (Europe, Middle East, and Africa)” by an independent jury. The award ceremony of international trade magazine Generics Bulletin took place on Tuesday evening at the Palacio Municipal de Congresos in Madrid, Spain. STADA won this award for its successful strategy based on OTC products, generics, and specialty pharmaceuticals including biosimilars after being taken over by financial investors Bain Capital and Cinven.

Most importantly, STADA was recognized for implementing strategic acquisitions and cooperations in branded products and biosimilars in less than one year, which has decisively contributed to the expansion and internationalization of its product portfolio. This was also accompanied by a noticeable change in the corporate culture at STADA from decentralized sales companies to increased international exchange among employees. To this end, STADA introduced new internal communications tools and encouraged employees worldwide to create more synergies and share knowledge. "I am really pleased to receive this award on behalf of our more than 10,000 employees. Many teams have successfully worked on our growth strategy in recent months and we are seeing good results. This is an excellent foundation on which we will continue to build," emphasizes STADA Chief Executive Officer Peter Goldschmidt.
