Partnering with Metabian

Your product. New markets. One trusted Irish partner.

If you are a pharmaceutical manufacturer in the European Union, Canada or the United States looking to extend the reach of your portfolio, Metabian offers a proven, low-risk route. We in-license your product, obtain its marketing authorisation, complete its registration, and market it responsibly in the territories we serve — protecting your product’s reputation and your standards at every step. As an Irish company, we act solely in the interest of the products we carry.

Our in-licensing model

How it works

Five stages, from the licence to the market and everything that follows it.

  1. 01

    Sourcing & in-licensing

    We identify medicinal products that fit our therapeutic focus and secure the licensing rights.

  2. 02

    Marketing authorisation

    We prepare and manage the regulatory submissions required to obtain authorisation in each target territory.

  3. 03

    Product registration

    We complete the registration processes that make each product legally available on the market.

  4. 04

    Commercialisation & market access

    We bring the product to market and represent it professionally in the territories we operate in.

  5. 05

    Lifecycle & compliance

    We maintain authorisations, manage variations, and uphold pharmacovigilance and quality obligations throughout the product's life.
