Other public compa- nies able to access fresh money were AC Immune, ObsEva, Auris Medical and Biocartis. Among pri- vate companies the largest financing rounds were achieved by ADC Therapeutics, getting CHF 101 million, and Sophia Genetics with CHF 76 million. The Swiss biotech industry generated overall rev- enues of CHF 4.8 billion in 2019, compared to CHF 4.0 billion in 2018. This boost in revenues was main- ly driven by favorable collaboration and licensing agreements for AC Immune, Basilea and CRISPR, as well as higher revenues for those biotechs al- ready selling products/services in the market.

Economically, life sciences are a major pillar of the Swiss economy, accounting for 40 percent of ex- ports with a truly global reach. The report also shows that the sector is not standing still with growth in new areas and a rise in international collaborations and investments,“ commented Michael Altorfer, CEO of the Swiss Biotech Association. „In line with the global biotechnology industry, Swiss biotech in 2019 again performed well, irrespective of the macroeconomic and external environment and showed resilience in the face of elevated geopoliti- cal, trade and tariff concerns. Financing held up, rev- enues increased and M&A activity continued.
