Webinar: Intro to Brand Protection: Safeguarding Patients & Products from Illicit Trade Risk

Date Wednesday, January 26
Speakers:

  • Frederic Menardo, Vice President EMEA (Excellis Europe)
  • Sean O’Hearen, Managing Consultant and Global Brand Protection Specialist (Excellis)

Counterfeiting methods are becoming ever more sophisticated. As counterfeiters seek to exploit products entering new markets with fewer controls, serialisation compliance and brand security remain an ongoing challenge and the strength of pharma supply chains is frequently tested.

With patient safety and brand integrity a critical concern, managing and mitigating the growing risks of counterfeiting, tampering and trademark infringement in day-to-day operations is an essential component of safe and effective pharma product management.

In an age where the protection, security and traceability of medicines is constantly under the spotlight, pharma companies of all sizes must rise to the challenge of developing watertight systems and processes across their entire operation.

In this insightful hour-long FREE webinar, global pharma compliance specialists Excellis Health Solutions (part of NNIT) will explore these risks in greater detail, highlighting the key considerations every pharma company must address in 2022.

EU-FMD Alerts Management webinar

Managing EMVS EU-FMD alerts in a timely and GMP-compliant way is a legal obligation for every pharma manufacturer selling to the European market.
Over two years after go-live, it’s clear that this remains a challenge, and the volume of alerts – despite being reduced overall – will remain significant over the long-term.

Across the broad range of customers for whom Excellis operates the Alerts Management Service, we observe an alert rate of 3 alerts per 1,000 packs – making EU-FMD alerts a daily occurrence.

Every MAH therefore needs a solid, reliable, quality-compliant process, operating during EU pharmacy working hours to achieve the mandated response times – regardless of whether the alert’s source is caused by the MAH or more common supply chain factors beyond their control.

Join our Webinar to learn:

  • What are your obligations?
  • How can you manage your EU alerts in a compliant but lean way?
  • How may the future EMVO AMS integrate with your process?
