The company also collaborates with Genzyme to market Aldurazyme.

BioMarin places significant emphasis on research, development, manufacturing, and commercialization speed, aiming to deliver important therapies promptly. The company's capabilities have led to numerous transformational therapies addressing unmet medical needs, providing substantial benefits over existing treatments.
