How can policy promote robust and resilient European supply chains as part of a global framework?

Event Description

After hosting a very successful first interactive webinar about how to prevent drug shortages and ensure resilient pharmaceutical supply chains in Europe, we’ve decided to organise another one, so that you can ask experts your questions about this crucial issue.
We will look at challenges in supply chain management in a COVID-19 context, and at the solutions we need. Our line-up of on-the-ground experts will be discussing what policy steps national and EU-level decision makers can take to ensure supply chain resilience, and answer your questions about how policy can secure access to medicines.
We welcome you to join us, as we share EFPIA members' on-the-ground experiences and propose solutions about how to ensure resilient medicine supply chains in future. The discussion will include first-hand insights from a panel of high-level speakers about:
·         The complexity of globally interconnected pharmaceutical supply chains,
·         The effects of external disruptions on medicines supply,
·         Policy steps to ensure supply chain protection and resilience.
