Amrita Therapeutics has appointed Penningtons as its sole international legal counsel following a detailed application process. Penningtons will advise the company on all its cross-border legal requirements, including intellectual property, corporate and commercial, banking and finance matters as well as joint ventures, fund raisings, technology collaborations and dispute resolution.

Its aim is to provide more effective alternatives for the treatment of cervical cancer, viral, and multi-resistant bacterial infections by designing products to defend the human body against more than one disease simultaneously.

Rustam Dubash, head of Penningtons' India group, is delighted with the appointment: "It is an honour to be selected by Amrita. This instruction reinforces our commitment to the Indian market place and to delivering innovative solutions for companies undertaking cross-border business activities."
