About The CPGR
Our non-profit organisation is an all-encompassing ecosystem that nurtures and drives Omics research and life science innovation in Africa. Based in Cape Town, the CPGR was formed in 2006 from an initiative by the South African Department of Science and Innovation (DSI). Since then, we have continuously worked to drive South Africa’s effort to become one of the leading bioeconomies in the world.

Quality is integral to our service processes, product development and communication. For this reason, we selected the ISO 9001:2015 certification as our Quality Management System standard. This enables us to generate outputs of the highest quality for our expert research services in genomics, proteomics and bioinformatics.
