NanoViricides, Inc. Recognized as one of the Most Innovative Businesses-2016 by AI Global Media - Acquisitions International

SHELTON, Conn., April 18, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- NanoViricides, Inc. (NYSE MKT: NNVC) (the "Company") announced today that it has been recognized as one of the "Most Innovative Business Leaders of 2016" by AI Global Media, publisher of Acquisition International Magazine and Website ("AI") (http://www.acquisition-intl.com).

A focus article on NanoViricides was published in AI Magazine, February 2016 issue.

"A nanoviricide® is a nanomedicine designed to neutralize and potentially destroy the virus. We had a chance to catch up with representatives from the Company and learn how they are leading the way with their advancements in this demanding field," state the editors. The article then recites from an interview with Dr. Anil R. Diwan, President of NanoViricides, Inc.

"NanoViricides, Inc. is a unique company in the bio/pharma field with the potential to become a stand-alone pharmaceutical company. We now have a fully customizable c-GMP-capable pilot manufacturing plant where we can produce multi-kilogram quantities of any nanoviricide, including injectables. This enables rapid translation of our drug candidates into human clinical trials. Early revenues upon drug approval will also be possible with our own manufacturing capability," said Dr. Diwan, regarding the positioning of NanoViricides in the pharma space.  

"We believe that we will be transitioning our drug candidates into clinical stage in the very near future. Our pipeline is very broad and rich. So we will be able to advance a number of drugs into clinical trials, one after another, in the near future, limited only by the available finances. We believe that the chances of clinical success of our drug candidates are very high. Thus we anticipate advancing a number of highly effective and safe antiviral drugs in the market, in a sustained manner. With our advanced R&D, we believe that we will remain an innovative and dynamic company, with continuing commercialization even after the first drug goes to market, for a very long time into the future. While we believe we will be able to grow organically to become a successful stand alone pharma company, we plan to seek commercialization options like licensing, joint ventures, and others to improve speed to market, in order to speed up revenue," explained Dr. Diwan, about the future and the strategy of the Company.
