Past event: Pharmaceutical Brand Protection & Anti-Counterfeiting

Protecting The Pharmaceutical Industry Against Illicit Trade And Falsified Medicines

With sales of falsified, substandard and counterfeit pharmaceuticals estimated at around $200 billion annually, the illicit pharmaceutical market tops the luxury goods, alcohol and even tobacco industry's illicit sales as the most lucrative imitation market. Such a profitable market continues to attract specialist counterfeiters and organised crime, making it clear that challenge of illicit pharmaceuticals is only growing despite public and private efforts.

The FMD is here and companies trading in the European market have serialised - so what's next in the fight against fakes? Can you say that your supply chain is now secure and your regional market presence risk free? If so, you are now in a unique industry position. If not - don't worry, that is why we are bringing the industries leading supply chain, brand protection and anti-counterfeiting experts together in Zurich this June.

We know that there is no single way for brands to prevent the illegal copying of their products, and that global regulations, such as the FMD and DSCSA, are only one step in the right direction. With a focus on understanding the scope and weaknesses in your current brand protection strategy, and pinpointing the best opportunities for greater supply chain securitisation, this year's forum is designed to give you the tools and connections to move past FMD compliance and into proactive brand and supply chain protection.

Join Discussions With Industry Experts On:

  • Understanding how FMD implementation can add value to your brand protection efforts beyond serialisation
  • How to maximise your global protection efforts through public sector and private sector collaboration
  • Optimising your supply chain visibility by pinpointing and mitigating your weaknesses
  • Balancing your brand exposure and external partner selection in emerging markets to minimise the presence of counterfeit materials
  • Establishing a holistic risk profile to map out your global brand presence and supply chain pressure-points. Plus much more.
