Mr. Stefan Müller, the CEO of DGWA (ANP’s European representative) said: “DGWA are excited to be partnering with ANP in Europe. Investor interest in mRNA biotechnology in Europe is significant and increasing rapidly. We are optimistic European interest in mRNA technology will translate to ANP which uses its Antisense drugs to target the mRNA of a gene and thereby silence protein expression.
DGWA have a proven and consistent European marketing approach which includes engagement with our extensive database of investors, connections with finance media, German language translation of corporate interviews with CEO, dissemination of ASX releases throughout EU finance channels, engagement with significant biotech investors and family offices in Europe and the UK. We look forward to introducing ANP to our investor networks in Europe and expansion of the company’s international investor base”.
