Conference Overview:
Indian pharmaceutical industry is third largest in the world and is one of the most developed industries. Technologically strong and totally self-reliant, the pharmaceutical industry in India has low costs of production, low R&D costs, innovative scientific manpower, strength of national laboratories and an increasing balance of trade.  Through the introduction of a system of product patents since 2005, Indian industry has today become very a worldwide exporter of high quality generic drugs. India exports pharmaceuticals to many countries across the world, including the U.S., Germany, France, Russia and UK.

This conference will deliberate on a review and assessment of regulatory issues in the Indian pharmaceutical industry. Understanding the regulatory scenario in this sector is extremely crucial not only due to the rapid and ongoing changes at the global level, largely with reference to good manufacturing practices (GMP), good clinical practices (GCP) and good laboratory practices (GLP) but also due to the onus on the regulatory bodies to ensure a healthy supply of quality drugs at affordable prices to the Indian masses as well as for overseas exports. 

We at Blackarrow Conferences understand the problems faced by pharma professionals in accessing requisite information in order to comply with the regulatory requirements; hence we are trying to simplify things for you by assembling the stalwarts of the Pharma industry at this conference to provide their key insights on important Indian guidelines and regulations.
