SKAN Group AG, a glob­al mar­ket lead­er in high-qual­ity isol­at­or sys­tems for aseptic pro­duc­tion pro­cesses in the (bio)pharmaceutical industry, suc­cess­fully lis­ted its shares on the SIX Swiss Exchange. Con­cur­rently with the IPO, SKAN Group AG (formerly BV Hold­ing AG) com­pleted a quasi-mer­ger and its shares were del­is­ted from BX Swiss.
