Executive Briefing - Nov 14, 2010

Challenges in the antibacterial market
Resistance demands action

The economic environment shows signs of recovery including encouraging signals of available venture capital. Challenges are obvious and remain abundant. Yet challenges bring opportunity. In particular, emerging and growing resistance pressure demands action as national and international campaigns consider incentives for antibacterial R&D, regulatory measurement, and influencing partnering incentives. To be successful in the rapidly changing drug development arena requires early knowledge of these powerful influences, market approaches, viewpoints, partnerships, and clinical practices. Be prepared to adapt your antibacterial R&D strategies to a volatile environment!

This Executive Briefing will focus on emerging trends and opportunities and provide you tools to guide strategic decision making as they illuminate influences that will make or break the success of your anti-infective business!

We will address challenges and opportunities for partnership as well as highlight key opportunities in the current market and forward 10 years. We will take an in-depth look at global initiatives to advance antibacterial drug development, national campaigns to curb resistance development, and their consequences for current business models and strategies. We will discuss aspects of regulatory viewpoints, likely political influences on prescribing habits, and the ever changing competitive landscape.
