The importance of the pharmaceutical industry in the modern-day Asian society cannot be overstressed especially as there are new diseases springing up from different areas, strengthening the importance of adequate drug research and development activities. However, with the growth of the industry in Asia comes the increase in fake drugs. In recent times, these products are still being produced and passed down to consumers in large quantities amidst the impact of the various counterfeiting hubs that have been seen to operate on a global scale. According to World Health Organization (WHO), about ten to thirty percent of the pharmaceuticals distributed to most third world countries are fake and this industry is growing at an alarming rate, even faster than legitimate pharmaceutical companies raking in about 7 billion yearly in sales.
We require both countrywide and industry-level participation, and in addition public and private sector coordinated effort, to identify and definitively battle counterfeiters.
Thus, To protect your brand and build a genuine future, Corvus Global Events invites you to Pharma Security Asia 2019 – An Anti-Counterfeiting, Drug Serialization and Supply-Chain Security Conference, which will have Pharma industry experts sharing various challenges faced, new strategies, case studies and use of innovative ideas and the conference will also offer opportunities to encourage partnerships and collaborations.
