GlycoNex, Inc. (TWO:4168) was founded in 2001 from a technology licensing agreement with Kyowa Hakko Kirin (KHK) and an academic collaboration with The Biomembrane Institute (TBI). Dr. Sen-itiroh Hakomori — academic co-founder of GlycoNex, professor at the University of Washington, and a foundational figure in tumor-associated carbohydrate antigen (TACA) research — led the glycobiology work that anchors GlycoNex's scientific approach. Over the following two decades, GlycoNex assembled a proprietary anti-glycan antibody library (the GlycoSH platform), advanced clinical and preclinical pipelines across three modalities, and built a GMP-compliant antibody manufacturing facility in Xizhi, New Taipei City.
The company operates today as a vertically integrated organization — from antibody discovery and process development through GMP production and clinical operations. Revenue is generated through asset out-licensing, technology services, and CDMO partnerships, alongside sustained research investment.
