As part of its mission to support companies in their export development, French Healthcare Association announces the creation of a new working group focusing on market access, strengthening the service offering to members by proposing practical and operational content targeted at key countries.

These seminars will be divided into three parts, dealing with regulatory, registration, pricing, reimbursement and distribution issues. They will be led by local players, leading experts and specialists in regulatory issues. These seminars aim to provide association members with the information they need to tackle new markets, as well as tools, resources, contacts and the opportunity to benefit from feedback from other members who have had previous experience in the area.

The 3 parts of these seminars will take place over one quarter and will be developed as follows:

• 1st stage: Deciphering the zone

Webinar presenting the ecosystem, the market, opportunities, public health plans and any other relevant elements ... Introductions to the major steps required for exporting to a zone, by country specialists and healthcare product approval.

• 2nd step: Knowledge support

Practical guidance and presentation of available tools and resources. Targeted technical Q&A session.

• Time 3: Feedback and operational advice

In a convivial format, members will be able to benefit from feedback from other members and consolidate a group in order to extend exchanges, share experiences, pool their approaches and open up mentoring opportunities.

This working group has been initiated under the responsibility of a prefiguration committee comprising Sanofi, Servier, Thuasne, LEEM and SNITEM, and will be led by Pierre Savart. Access to these seminars is reserved for French Healthcare Association member structures.
