The 2019 Swiss Healthcare Licensing Group (HLG) Winter Conference focused on the topic “Capture Deal Value – When and How?”
The pharmaceutical industry is facing increasing challenges to cope with the quickly changing world economy. The requirements in healthcare are becoming ever more demanding considering the higher standard of data, financial investments and time, let alone governments` cost-containment measures getting more restrictive.
