The Singapore and India-based private equity firm Everstone Capital invested $33 million in contract research and drug delivery company Rubicon Research, in a bid to diversify its portfolio. Rubicon has a USFDA-approved manufacturing plant in Mumbai, and it provides solutions for bioavailability enhancement, gastric retention, taste masking, and customizing the release profiles of drugs. It also offers life cycle management services for pharmaceutical products.
