Mumbai, November 30, 2017: The 2nd edition of the celebrated India Pharma Week, a UBM India initiative — introduced last year to celebrate a decade of CPhI & P-MEC, UBM’s flagship engagement platform, and the world’s leading Pharmaceutical networking event — witnessed one of its most significant events, the CEO Round Table.
The exclusive, closed-door Round Table was a congregation of India’s most influential CEOs, Presidents & Founders from leading pharmaceutical companies, and Policy Makers & Senior Representatives from Pharmaceutical Associations who engaged with one another on the vital issue of Make in India – Ensuring India’s Pharma Supremacy with a special focus on affordable healthcare in the urban and rural areas in India.
“Meanwhile, the US – the largest exporter of Indian generics — has started looking inwards at its own domestic market. Hence the subject of Ensuring India’s Pharma Supremacy- Make in India becomes critical.

The CEO Round Table is an extremely proactive initiative with the White Paper Report that will be presented to relevant policy makers.” he further added.
