No Passport Required: Tapping into Global Biopharma Opportunities
Thursday, March 18, 2021
9:00 a.m. PT | 11:00 a.m. CT | 12:00 p.m. ET
How does a biopharma company – big or small – succeed globally?
Capital markets from the U.S. to Hong Kong are booming, innovation and expertise are springing up in even more locations, and unmet medical needs have never been more urgently global. For biopharma companies, opportunities abound – as do challenges. Expect from this panel a wide-ranging discussion on successfully managing global expansion, including: evaluating private and public financing alternatives; structuring non-U.S. partnering deals; building broad supply and distribution chains; managing worldwide clinical and regulatory activities; and developing a sound governmental affairs strategy.
