Dutch biotechnology company Crucell N.V. said Friday it received $230 million in contracts from supranational organizations for its Quinvaxem and Hepavax-Gene pediatric vaccines.
The company did not name the organizations. A supranational organization often involves a group of nations, with one example being the European Union.
