The biological drug market is one of the fastest growing sectors of the pharmaceutical industry which corresponds to over 15% of the total pharmaceutical market. However, due to the patent expiry of many drugs, and increasing pressure from government, insurers and patient advocacy groups to reduce expenditure a number of opportunities for biosimilars have been created. 19 October 2009 - 21 October 2009

This meeting will not be a best practice conference with standard speaking slots and power point presentations. Yes, we have leading thinkers in this space on our speaker panel – but delegates in attendance will be as much a part of the meeting as these speakers. Discussion, debate and scrutiny will be the order of the meeting. This is your chance to be part of an Initiative to test theories, discuss successful models and collaborations and ultimately use the take-aways from these discussions to take your Discovery and Development process to the next level. 11 November 2009 - 12 November 2009
