LakePharma, a Hopkinton-based firm, was acquired by Curia.
Albany company Curia, a contract research, development and manufacturing company formerly known as AMRI, announced it has entered into an agreement to acquire LakePharma Inc., a biologics drug discovery, clinical research, development and manufacturing organization with offices in Worcester and Hopkinton.
A purchase price was not disclosed on the announcement Wednesday.
LakePharma’s Massachusetts presence began as Blue Sky Biotech at the Massachusetts Biomedical Initiatives incubator in Worcester, before being sold to LakePharma. The larger LakePharma company was founded in California in 2009, according to Wednesday’s announcement.
LakePharma employs 235 people across six facilities, including 100 in Central Massachusetts, which will join Curia’s 3,100 employees and 21 sites.
The acquisition is expected to close later this year.
