CPhl Worldwide 2018 is not only a unique platform that brings together the entire global pharmaceutical industry, but also an indicator of the overall state of the industry, he noted.
"It is always important to check what you are worth in the eyes of the annual participants of the pharmaceutical forum, who know the market and are able to evaluate each company, its project and the country it represents," the Generium CEO added.
During the forum, representatives of Generium held dozens of meetings with colleagues and clients from Europe, Latin America, Asia and Africa, who were interested in Russian medicines.

Generium is preparing to enter the market with its products aimed at combating rare and hereditary diseases such as Gaucher disease, cystic fibrosis and paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria, Kudlay said.

In some cases, Generium’s entry into these markets may allow to reduce government spending on treating patients with rare diseases by 30 percent, the company’s CEO concluded.
СPhl Worldwide 2018 was held on October 9-11 in Madrid with over 2,500 companies participating. It was attended by more than 44,000 visitors.
