Spain's pharma industry reinforces commitment for public-private collaboration in research

21 March 2016

Latest figures show that the Spanish pharmaceutical industry invested 382 million euros ($431 million) in contracts with the National Health system during 2014, maintaining once again its leading position in the private sector as far as public-private collaboration in Spain is concerned.

The latter was highlighted last week by trade group Farmaindustria’s director general, Humberto Arnés, during the opening session of the IX Annual Conference of Biomedical Research Technological Platforms: Innovative Medicines, Nanomedicines, Healthcare Technology and Biotechnological markets, which is held today and tomorrow in Barcelona. Under the title The New Challenges In Biomedical Research, this event, which brought together around 300 scientists and researchers, has earned its place as a reference in biomedical research, since it allows the diffusion of the most recent national and international initiatives in public-private collaboration in this area.
