"Pets are part of the family" is a common refrain in the pet and vet industries, but two companies are taking that to heart to help people and their aging pets gain a new lease on life. Through connections made at the 2018 Annual Animal Health Homecoming, a new licensing deal was conceived for two young companies aiming to improve both by leveraging the One Health Initiative mindset. Motega Health Inc., a biopharmaceutical and food company bringing novel, patented technologies to pharmaceutical and food sciences for human and animal health products, today announced it has executed a licensing agreement with Simini Technologies, Inc., a pharmaceutical company which specializes in licensing veterinary rights to human health drug candidates to develop those products for animal applications.
