Event Description
Welcome to Rud Pedersen’s Fourth Healthcare Seminar, focusing on trends in European Healthcare Policy.
Cercle de Lorraine, Brussels 6 November 2017, 14:00-16:30
Today, valuebased healthcare is a strong trend in the European market, and at the same time, different constellations of EU countries are forming clusters for joint procurement of medicines to drive down prices as much as possible - including the Nordic Countries.
The Nordic markets are setting trends by moving towards more centralisation and increased focus on pricing according to value of new products, and the combined markets together with the Baltic countries, can be one of the largest markets in Europe. What effects will a joint procurement cluster give, and how does this align with the intention to price according to value?
At the same time, three of the Nordic countries are competing to get to host EMA following Brexit.
How are these trends, the cooperation and competition, affecting the Life Science industries (e.g. the pharmaceutical industry and the medical device industry) - and what can we learn from the Nordic markets?
Key note speaker – Christina Åkerman, President, ICHOM
