 PROFILE
bioMérieux-Pierre Fabre sweats the small stuff. The company was formed by the merger of microbiology leader bioMérieux Alliance, maker of "in vitro" diagnostics with a focus on infectious diseases; and Pierre Fabre, a leading pharmaceutical and dermo-cosmetics maker. The company focuses on various therapeutic areas, including dermo-cosmetics, clinical diagnostics, pharmaceuticals, and immunotherapy. The company sells its products in more than 120 countries; about half of its sales come from abroad. Ownership of the new company is split evenly between the two founding groups, which were both largely controlled by founders Alain Mérieux and Pierre Fabre.
