OriCiro Genomics Expand into Boston, Open New Office in North America

OriCiro Genomics K.K. a pioneer in cell-free synthesis and amplification of genome-scale large DNA for advanced therapeutics and synthetic biology, today announced the open US office in North America.

In the midst of the genomic revolution, OriCiro is on a mission to Accelerating the Bioeconomy through innovative DNA technologies.

OriCiro has rapidly developed its cell-free cloning technology over the past two years, launching three cell-free DNA tools as reagent kits and 700 reagent kits have been sold worldwide so far.

At the same time, OriCiro has expanded custom services to accept up to 200 kb size of DNA. They have been ordered and delivered for seven projects that were failure or difficult to synthesize using PCR or cell-based cloning methods. 60% of their sales come from customer outside of Japan.

To further expand their business, OriCiro is entering North America, the largest market in the life science industry.

The US office will cover North America and Canada. They already have a sales force in place. They can accept order directly from those territories and customers in the following product and services.
