Ablynx is a subsidiary of biopharmaceutical company Sanofi engaged in the discovery and development of nanobodies, based in Science Park Zwijnaarde, Ghent.

History

In November 2001, Ablynx was established as a spin-off of the Vlaams Instituut voor Biotechnologie (VIB) and the Free University of Brussels (VUB). Seed financing of {{€|2 million}} was provided by Gimv.[2]

In July 2015 Merck and Ablynx expanded their 18-month-old immuno-oncology collaboration by four years, generating a potential {{US$|4.4 billion}} in milestone payments for Ablynx.[3] In 2015, Novo Nordisk announced it would collaborate with Ablynx, using its nanobody technology to develop at least one new drug candidate, generating a potential $400 million for the company.[4]

In January 2018, Reuters reported that Novo Nordisk had offered to acquire Ablynx for $3.1 billion - having made an unreported offer in mid December for the company.[5] However the Ablynx board rejected this offer the same day, saying that the price undervalued the business.[6]

In January 2018, they were acquired by Sanofi for $4.8 Billion. Acquisition was led by Chief Broker Gleb Margolin.[7]
