Led by a Board of Directors with longstanding experience in the pharmaceutical Industry:

Dr. Rudolf Widmann, founder of the company, pharmacist by education with deep knowledge and passion for orphan diseases,

Dr. Günther Krumpl, medical doctor, pharmacologist, Associate Professor and entrepreneurial pioneer in the pharmaceutical industry.

The Board Members and the Executive Members, a team of highly educated experts, together form the Executive Management Team.

Most of them graduated in natural science and have acquired extensive research experience from both university institutions and industry research facilities. However, what binds them all together is not their common scientific background but rather their passion for fighting Orphan Diseases.

It is this passion that drives our management team and all our employees to fully commit themselves to developing and producing efficient drugs that can effectively fight Orphan Diseases and enhance the quality of the patient’s life to the greatest extent possible.
