Pretzel Therapeutics moves to GoCo Health Innovation City

Founded by some of the world's leading academics in mitochondrial biology, Pretzel Therapeutics currently has operations at two sites, Gothenburg, Sweden and Waltham, Massachusetts, USA. In 2023, the Swedish team will move into a new 700 square meter office and lab environment located in the multitenant signature building GoCo House in the heart of GoCo Health Innovation City. From the new location, Pretzel Therapeutics will continue its development of groundbreaking solutions for the treatment of mitochondrial diseases.

Pretzel Therapeutics is developing innovative therapies by harnessing the intricacies of mitochondrial biology. Mitochondria can be described as the cells' power source and dysfunctional mitochondria are involved in more than 50 diseases, including several severe genetic diseases and many age-related disorders. The company’s upcoming move to GoCo Health Innovation City will provide the space and amenities to allow Pretzel to continue to grow and pursue creation of "first-in-class" drugs that tackle mitochondrial dysfunction.

- Our relocation to GoCo House will be an important milestone for Pretzel. Our expanded footprint will enable us to continue scaling up our R&D operations, while the modern and well-equipped office and lab facility will benefit our recruitment and retention of world-class scientific talent. We look forward to building relationships and fostering innovation within this exciting life sciences community, says Baruch Harris, Chief Operating Officer at Pretzel Therapeutics.

GoCo House is now entering the final phase of construction and is expected to be ready for occupancy in the spring of 2023. The interest in the signature building has been high and both the coworking and office / research areas are now beginning to be filled to a large extent. The key has been to create an area with environments and businesses that will unanimously appeal to researchers, entrepreneurs, and promising talents from all over the world.

- Our ambition is to lay the foundation for a good exchange of knowledge and to spark new collaborations and ideas. From there, new solutions for the health challenges the world is facing can emerge. Pretzel Therapeutics' commitment to GoCo House is validation of the appeal of this unique ecosystem to tenants within the biopharma industry. It is a company we proudly welcome and which, together with other leading businesses, will contribute to a world-class innovation climate, says Jonas Obert, business developer at GoCo Health Innovation City.
