IVI is the only international organization in the world exclusively dedicated to discovering, developing and delivering vaccines for global health. IVI focuses on vaccines against infectious diseases of the most impoverished. We AIM to make vaccines available and accessible for vulnerable populations in developing countries. We live in an increasingly globalized world where new and emerging infectious diseases CAN become global health threats. IVI also focuses on vaccines against infectious diseases of major global health concern. Our research spans the entire vaccine spectrum from discovery and preclinical development in our seoul-based LABS to clinical development at field sites in developing countries to generating scientific evidence on the need for vaccination in countries where vaccines are most needed. Our headquarters in seoul have state-of-the art lab facilities, animal house, and research teams that include clinical immunology, process development, epidemiology, clinical & regulatory, biostatistics & data management, and policy & economic research. Outside of seoul, we have a global network of field sites in more than 20 countries in ASIA, africa, and the americas. We manage field sites in collaboration with regional and in-country partners. We work with local partners to implement translational and field research projects, and we also provide training and technical assistance.
