It promises more breakthroughs, discoveries and world-firsts by taking great ideas from the lab to the market. The Horizon 2020 program is administered by the European Commission in Brussels and can be used by participants from all over the European Union.
Kārlis Urbāns, Finance director of Rigvir Group: “There are millions of cancer patients around the world who are in need of this unique cancer medicine. I hope that this grant will make cancer virotherapy more available for everyone who would benefit from it. Cancer patients deserve this safe, effective and humane cancer treatment”.
