Description

On 22 & 23 March 2018, Porto will host the 2nd BioTech Pharma Summit: Biosimilars & Biologics 2018. This year’s flagship event will gather top EU, US, Asia and global regulators, officials, healthcare actors as well as industry leaders, to foster open exchange and debate on the role of the biosimilars & biologics medicines sector.

 

Over 200+ proteins, peptides and biosimilars delegates representing leading biotech companies, global pharmaceutical organisations and internationally renowned academic institutions at the Biosimilars & Biologics 2018

 

With more U.S., Europe biosimilars continuing to receive FDA/EMA approval, it is critical that bio/pharmaceutical companies develop strategies to comply with evolving regulations, mitigate risk and execute long-term decisions to prepare for success.

 

Over 20 presentations and case studies focusing on the key areas of the biosimilars industry including market access strategies, clinical development, commercialisation, manufacturing and bio-analytics

 

Biosimilars will lead to $54 billion less in direct spending on biologics (or about 3% of total spending on biologics) over the next decade. The range of the new savings estimate given reasonable ranges of key assumptions, such as the price of biosimilars versus reference biologics and biosimilar market share, varied from $24 billion to $150 billion from 2018 through 2027.

The BioTech Pharma Summit: Biosimilars & Biologics 2018 is the leading event to continually stay on the pulse of the biosimilars’ ever-changing market and convenes key stakeholders including biosimilar and innovator pharmaceutical manufacturers, payers, providers and patient advocates addressing timely challenges and best practices for biosimilar product success
