Asia Pharmaleaders To Review India Healthcare Brand Growth Story in Mumbai

Industry Experts, Medical Practioners, Consultants & Policy Makers Will Gather To Address At Asia’s Biggest 5^th Annual Pharmaceutical Leadership Summit & Business Leadership Awards 2012

Monday, 23^rd July 2012, Mumbai, Maharashtra: Pharmaleaders is all set to bring together some of the biggest names in healthcare, pharmaceutical circle, policy makers to create a platform of interaction of a very intense debate on Brand India : Beyond Generics, Growth, Challenges & Developments in Mumbai on Friday, the 21^st September 2012 at Hotel Hilton Mumbai International Airport. The timing of such a Summit is viewed as very crucial at a time, the Government of India announcing the landmark historical decision to make medicines available to the needy in the form of Generics. In fact, India has put in place a $5.4 billion policy to provide free medicine to its people, a decision that could change the lives of hundreds of millions, but a ban on branded drugs stands to cut Big Pharma out of the windfall. Many Industry Experts question the implementation of such a policy at a time when the nation is affected by diverse factors such as weak government due to coalition politics, corrupt administration & unstable economic conditions. While the nation will stand to get benefited from such a grand plan, there will be every question mark on the successful implementation of free for medicine plans says Satya Brahma, Editor-In-Chief of Pharmaleaders, “ It indeed will open up a divide of interests between the domestic pharma majors & Big Pharma as some of the best known brands will go for a toss, something major MNC’s cant afford, moreover, patient safety will be a biggest challenge Satya added. Organised by Pharmaleaders in association with several leading trade & Pressure bodies, 5^th Annual Pharmaceutical Leadership Summit & Business Leadership Awards 2012 ( www.asiapharmaleaders.com ) will spring some controversial thoughts by the veterans of the Industry.
