Specialty vaccine manufacturer for Lyme disease, chikungunya, and travel medicine
Valneva is a public biotech company developing and manufacturing vaccines for infectious diseases with limited treatment options, including marketed chikungunya and Lyme disease candidates. The tech stack is entirely Microsoft-centric (Dynamics 365, Azure, Microsoft 365), with active projects clustered around ERP migration, finance digitalization, and quality-control process validation—a hiring pattern (9 senior roles across finance, manufacturing, and operations) that reflects organizational restructuring rather than R&D scaling, suggesting operational maturation and regulatory compliance infrastructure upgrades drive current priorities over pipeline expansion.
Valneva manufactures prophylactic vaccines targeting unmet infectious disease needs, operating across six countries with approximately 700 employees. The company markets three proprietary travel vaccines and is developing candidates for Lyme disease (in partnership with Pfizer), Zika, and other public health threats. Manufacturing and commercialization infrastructure spans Austria, Sweden, the UK, France, Canada, and the US. Current operational focus centers on ERP implementation, finance process modernization, and quality control standardization—typical of a mid-stage biotech maturing its operations alongside clinical development.
Valneva uses Microsoft Dynamics 365 (Finance, Operations, Supply Chain), Azure cloud services, Microsoft 365 (Teams, SharePoint, Exchange), Active Directory, and Office tools. No custom development platforms are evident in the public tech footprint.
Valneva is headquartered in Saint-Herblain, Pays de la Loire, France. Operations span Austria, Sweden, the United Kingdom, Canada, and the United States.
