Coyol Impulsa will reward suppliers linked to manufacturing processes of the Life Sciences Sector of Coyol Free Zone

August. National companies that are part of the value chain in the Life Sciences sector of Coyol Free Zone will have a valuable opportunity to make their innovations known to the country through Coyol Impulsa Awards. It is an initiative that provides them with a showcase, and training appropriate to their line of business.
Coyol Impulsa is an award created by Coyol Free Zone to invite suppliers that provide any service integrated into the manufacturing processes of the companies installed in the park to promote the competitiveness and productivity of the companies of the Life Sciences Cluster in the country.

“The supplier companies are a fundamental part of the added value chain for the companies of the Life Sciences Cluster, and will be an indispensable pillar in the future of the free zones. At CFZ we wanted to propose and reward those suppliers that, day by day, contribute positively to the manufacturing of the companies operating in our free zone”, said the General Director of Coyol Free Zone, Carlos Wong.

Coyol Impulsa is a contest that seeks exposure for outstanding companies to inspire small businesses and entrepreneurs who wish to forge a path in the Life Sciences industry.

Productive chains with potential

In order to participate in Coyol Impulsa, companies must be local suppliers linked to the manufacturing process of companies in the Life Sciences sector of Coyol Free Zone, and have production, quality, and service standards to meet the industry requirements.
