Òscar Pérez, chief Scientific and Business Development Officer at Ferrer, describes himself as a resilient individual, accustomed to working in processes with low probabilities of success but with a very high potential impact on society.

Ferrer is a company with a clear and distinctive purpose within the pharmaceutical sector, with a history dating back to 1959 and a strong commitment to social justice in recent decades. The company focuses its research on rare, complex and minority diseases, and reinvests a very significant portion of its profits into social return, allocating 40% to social causes. Historically, Ferrer’s most strategic centers have been located in Sant Cugat—an environment that Òscar Pérez highlights as particularly attractive for companies and professionals, where talent generates more talent.

In this context, he underlines that BIVA offers a key opportunity to share ideas, generate synergies and build alliances, contributing to the creation of a city and country brand that places Sant Cugat on the innovation radar and acts as a loudspeaker for the territory’s innovative potential.
