/24-7PressRelease.com/ - March 23, 2005 - PRICING, REIMBURSEMENT AND PARALLEL TRADE 2005 will take place on May 25th and 26th in London. The conference will begin May 25th with opening remarks from the conference chairman, Christopher Teale from Allergan.
The 3rd Annual Pricing, Reimbursement and Parallel Trade 2005 will focus on the current trends and update you on issues surrounding PandR, with a special scope on the latest parallel trade developments. In the light of new technologies being developed, pharmaceutical companies are constantly looking for ways to improve their products' competitiveness in the parallel trading grounds. A unique case study by representatives from Pfizer will address the company's latest proposal to implement the new RFID technology in all their products, to facilitate parallel trade in a more secured environment and to avoid counterfeiting in developing countries.
The variations in PandR policies between Europe and North America have already produced a huge gap, leading to a range of controversial issues. This event will explore the pricing and reimbursement environments in Albania, Bulgaria, Croatia, Macedonian, Siberia, Montenegro and Turkey. Discussions of PandR case studies in Germany, Italy, Spain, Ireland will also be examined. With the enlarged Europe and the rising Asian markets, discover how best to manipulate systems to develop the most cost-effective PandR strategy. Find out how can you benefit from market variations and succeed in the evolving parallel trading grounds.
