El-Khatib warmly welcomed the participants and stressed the interest of EDA in promoting innovation and developing regulatory systems to provide safe and effective medicines to all patients, noting the commitment of EDA to strengthen regional and international co-operation to achieve integration and regulatory harmony.
DIA aims to create an effective environment that allows all stakeholders to share the challenges facing the future of the pharmaceutical industry, agree on realistic scenarios, and discuss the best ways and work together to find innovative solutions.
