SK bioscience introduced a new global partnership model under the title of 'Preparing for Next Pandemic through Global Partnership' at the Riyadh Global Medical Biotechnology Summit 2023 (RGBMS 2023) in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia(KSA) as a first and an only Korean biopharmaceutical company participating the session. During the presentation, Mr. Ahn shared the successful development history of the Korea's first COVID-19 vaccine while emphasizing the importance of global cooperation in terms of global health security. Further, he suggested a global cooperation based on the SK bioscience's vaccine R&D and manufacturing capabilities that can be transferred to the Middle East in the future.

Mr. Ahn also emphasized the partnership that both stably supplying of necessary vaccines in the region during normal times and quickly switching to an emergency vaccine manufacturing system in the pandemic period can be possible once the facilities and the technologies are transferred to countries where insufficient infrastructure still exists. SK bioscience is promoting the 'Glocalization' business based on its R&D and manufacturing capabilities. Under the glocalization project, SK bioscience plans to contribute to resolving the inequitable access of vaccines in low- and middle- income countries with lack of infrastructure, and further create social and economic values by pioneering new markets for self-developed vaccines.
