F2G Wins Investment Deal of the Year Bionow 2022 Award

MANCHESTER, United Kingdom, March 17, 2023 – F2G Ltd. today announced the company has been awarded a prestigious Bionow award in recognition of its contributions to the North England biotech industry and progress towards developing a new class of antifungals for treatment of rare fungal infections. F2G was awarded Investment Deal of the Year at the Bionow awards ceremony which was held at the iconic Concorde Conference Centre in Manchester, United Kingdom, on March 16, 2023.

The Investment Deal of the Year award, sponsored by QIAGEN, is in recognition of F2G’s strategic collaboration with Shionogi Co., Ltd. to develop and commercialize a new class of antifungal drugs for invasive fungal infections in Europe and Asia, bringing the drug to patients F2G alone would not have reached. The deal terms between F2G Ltd., and Shionogi & Co. Ltd were notably above benchmarks for the antifungal space.

“We are honored to be recognized and celebrated by our peers with the prestigious award from Bionow. It is a testament to the hard work and commitment of our team to advance a novel antifungal therapy for patients with invasive fungal infections who have exhausted their treatment options,” said Francesco Maria Lavino, Chief Executive Officer of F2G. “We are grateful for the support of our investors, partners, and collaborators, particularly our colleagues at Shionogi who continue to believe in the potential of our transformational science and look forward to bringing a new antifungal to global markets.”
