The life science industry is still mostly closed for non-COVID related business. Reinforced by the prevailing uncertainty and the practical difficulties, the industry's COVID-focus has led to that everything from simple procurements to company mergers has been put on hold.

There are good reasons to believe that the life science industry will be stronger than ever when it has delivered a vaccine to the world and again turns its attention to endemic diseases. The loan commitment allows the company to then be at the forefront. This by means of continued product development, but not least, by adapting sales and marketing to the online world, we now clearly see emerging in the pandemic's footsteps.
