Vevey 20 June, 2018 – On 19 June 2018, Ahmed Bouzidi gave a well-received presentation at the Interpat AGM in Munich, speaking on two topics that are currently a focus of EBE: 1) SME innovation and IP landscape, and 2) Impact of the SPC manufacturing waiver on EU innovative SMEs.
Ahmed Bouzidi pointed: « It’s essential for the entire pharmaceutical business to closely work with SMEs because they are more and more relying on them in order to secure their product pipeline ».
Ahmed Bouzidi added: « The SPC Manufacturing Waiver would create during a very limited period jobs in the generic field, but it will cause more direct and indirect job losses in innovative EU-based companies. It will also decrease R&D investments in the EU ».
