is organizing the 5th Annual Generic Medicine & Biosimilars
Middle East Summit on the 10th - 11th September at the Al
Ghurair Rayhaan Rotaba,Dubai-UAE under the patronage of
the GCC Executive Health Ministers Council. The Summit is a key
gathering in the UAE for all generic manufacturers, regional
regulators and healthcare professionals and will focus on how
generics and biosmilars are meeting important needs within the
region.
The event will have an expert-level speaker faculty to provide
leading analysis and insights on Generic Medicine policy in GCC,
biosimilars, pricing and economics. It is a dedicated conference
that will directly address the needs of this important role in the
healthcare framework in this growing regional field.
On the behalf of GCC Executive Health Ministers Council I would
like to invite your company to support the conference as
sponsorship partners. Your involvement will be highly valued
and appreciated by the audience and will ensure that all
stakeholders recognize the commitment of your company to the
development of Generic Medicine in the region.
I hope you accept this request and agree to participate in 5th
