Moderna (NASDAQ:MRNA) on Tuesday said it planned to open a hub to provide enterprise solutions in the Philippines to support the Asia Pacific region.
MRNA said the hub would initially house finance, pharmacovigilance, medical, and HR personnel, in addition to commercial-focused roles.
MRNA already has established enterprise solutions hubs in Poland and the U.S.
"The Asia Pacific region is integral to Moderna's business, with established subsidiaries in Australia, Hong Kong, Japan, Singapore, South Korea, and Taiwan," MRNA CEO StÃ©phane Bancel said in a statement.
"We look forward to further solidifying our presence. The addition of the Philippines site completes our strategy to provide regional solutions across the business," Bancel added.
MRNA also said it planned to establish a commercial presence in the Philippines and that it expects to employ about 40 to 50 employees in the country this year.
