Rejuvenate GmbH, which is now renamed into CO.DON GmbH, took over the operative business and the cooperation with business partners and customers will continue seamlessly. The former CO.<span class=\"xn-person\">DON AG<\/span> executive board member, who has been leading the company through the insolvency proceedings in self-administration, has been appointed managing director of CO.DON GmbH. The remaining liquidation of CO.<span class=\"xn-person\">DON AG<\/span> in the regular insolvency proceedings will be carried out by lawyer R\u00fcdiger Wienberg, who has now been appointed insolvency administrator by the insolvency court. The asset deal was professionally accompanied by Dr. Wieselhuber &amp; Partner GmbH under the leadership of the distressed M&amp;A team led by J\u00f6rg Balz.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"xn-person\">Tilmann Bur<\/span>, Managing Director of CO.DON GmbH: &#8220;Thanks to the professional support of the administrator, Mr. R\u00fcdiger Wienberg, lawyer, and his team led by Michael D\u00f6hner, lawyer, as well as our advisors from Aderhold Rechtsanwaltsgesellschaft, led by <span class=\"xn-person\">Patrick Klawa<\/span>, lawyer, and Bianca B\u00f6ttcher, lawyer, the structured M&amp;A process has now been brought to this positive conclusion. As an important and integral part of the ReLive Group, there is a clear vision for the future of CO.DON GmbH. In addition to stable growth in our existing markets, we are aiming for a strong global positioning in the field of regenerative therapies.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Zhao, Founder and CEO of ReLive: \u201eWith the acquisition of CO.DON, we are expanding our future-oriented business in the field of regenerative medicine with the only EMA-approved cell therapy product for cartilage repair. With this transaction, we are continuing our R&amp;D and business development strategies to become a global leader in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>R\u00fcdiger Wienberg is delighted with the successful restructuring solution: &#8220;After continuing business operations since the summer of 2022, it was possible to implement a viable restructuring solution under the most difficult economic conditions together with the self-administration set up in the best possible way by the restructuring specialists from Aderhold. This not only secures the company&#8217;s know-how and locations in <span class=\"xn-location\">Germany<\/span>, but also saves over 90 % of the jobs. This would not have been possible without the trust of customers, employees and suppliers on the one hand and the support of the Federal Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Action as well as the competent state authorities in Saxony and Brandenburg on the other &#8211; I would like to express my sincere thanks to all of them,&#8221; says Wienberg. At the same time, Wienberg is optimistic that &#8220;from an economic point of view, this successful restructuring will also lead to a very good economic result for CO.<span class=\"xn-person\">DON AG&#8217;s<\/span> creditors&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p><i>CO.<span class=\"xn-person\">DON AG<\/span> develops, produces and distributes autologous cell therapies for the minimally invasive repair of cartilage defects. The product being marketed is a cell therapy product for the minimally invasive treatment of cartilage damage in the knee joint that uses only the patient&#8217;s own cartilage cells (&#8220;autologous chondrocytes&#8221;). CO.DON&#8217;s method is currently used in over 200 clinics in <span class=\"xn-location\">Germany<\/span> and more than 18,000 patients have already been treated. In <span class=\"xn-chron\">July 2017<\/span> CO.<span class=\"xn-person\">DON AG<\/span> received central EU marketing authorization for this product, followed by the marketing authorization for <span class=\"xn-location\">Switzerland<\/span> in <span class=\"xn-chron\">March 2019<\/span>. At the <span class=\"xn-location\">Leipzig<\/span> site, CO.DON has built one of the largest facilities for the production of human cells on an industrial scale for in-house and contract manufacturing.
