Its affiliate Jianshun Bio (健顺生物) develops and manufactures serum‑free, chemically defined mammalian cell culture media and is described as a leading domestic supplier, serving 100+ clinical projects including over 20 phase‑III trials. On the CDMO side the company has served more than 40 clients since launching that business and reports rapidly growing annual orders.

The company states the new funding will be used to expand CDMO and media production capacity and to build a global‑scale media production base and an internationally leading CDMO platform. Thousand Oaks emphasizes an international management and technical team and positions its proprietary serum‑free media as enabling domestic substitution of previously imported products.
