PhageLab was recognized with the WIPO Global Award 2025, becoming the first Chilean company, and the second in Latin America, to receive this award granted by the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO).
The recognition, presented on July 11 in Geneva (Switzerland), highlights companies that use intellectual property strategically to scale innovation and generate global impact. This year, the competition received over 780 applications from 95 countries, making this distinction especially meaningful.
For us, it validates the way we understand innovation. At PhageLab, intellectual property is not just legal protection, it’s an active tool we use every day to translate science into real-world solutions. From our labs to the field, it connects data, knowledge, and forward-thinking vision.
This recognition also encourages us to keep moving forward in addressing one of the most urgent health challenges of our time: antimicrobial resistance. We face it with phages and with a top-level team that brings together science, creativity, and relentless curiosity. Phagers who don’t just solve problems, they anticipate them. A well-deserved recognition for the brilliant minds behind this achievement.
