Stichting Tuberculosis Vaccine Initiative

TBVI brings together the efforts of leading universities government institutes biotech and vaccine companies through TB vaccine and biomarker discovery and development projects. TBVI creates an enabling environment through its knowledge-sharing platform including meetings symposia and workshops and through joint collaborative research that stimulates knowledge exchange and creates synergies among R&D partners and other stakeholders in the field.

TBVI supports translation from ideas to tangible products through the advisory services of its Product & Clinical Development Team P&CDT. This team of independent vaccine R&D experts supports TBVIs R&D partners in moving their candidates from discovery to early clinical development. In its strategy TBVI considers the need to: discover and develop safe and effective vaccines for all; prevent infection and transmission of disease; build on the R&D comparative advantage of the TBVI consortium members; make the best use of limited resources and mobilise additional funding.
