1
Transition flawlessly to the PMPRB’s new pricing regulations about to be implemented

2
Comply with the new CADTH submission process
Get the latest information on the recent changes to CADTH’s drug review process and stay on top of current requirements to avoid wasting time and money on re-submissions.
3
Get the latest news on how market share for biosimilars is changing brand medications, or are they?
While biosimilars represent substantial cost savings, their uptake by patients has not been as high as expected. Learn how government intervention is increasing the curve on their level of pharma market share.
4
Voice your organization’s opinion as to how domestic regulatory modernization efforts are viewed by your peers and whether they will help clarify the drug submission process and reduce costs
Regulatory modernization efforts continue in order to meet the challenges of new biomedical technology. They are intended to streamline the drug submission process, but some may argue that they now present more of an obstacle. Stay on top of these developments and learn how your company can reduce costs.

5
Improve your value propositions and secure PLAs for new therapies with insights from public and private payers
As prices for new treatments continue to climb, payers’ budgets are stretched to the limit. Find out what approaches both groups are taking to try to ensure their drug benefit plans are sustainable, and the expectations your company will need to meet.
The 19th Annual Market Access Summit is Canada’s largest event exclusively focussed on new developments in pharmaceutical market access and reimbursement. This year’s event is a 3-Day VIRTUAL offering. We are excited that the change in format gives us the opportunity to bring Market Access Summit to a broader audience, showcasing an interactive digital format.
We are also introducing a number of innovative online initiatives, for example, one-on-one meetings, small roundtable discussions, virtual exhibitions and most importantly, the return of our top most requested speakers and fresh case studies.
Strategy Institute has been in business for 25+ years, has produced at over 450 conferences and catered to more than 50,000 attendees. We act as an independent conference organizer, with an emphasis on high quality research and lead generation to meet the needs of our customers.
Ever attend an event where you feel like you’re lost in the crowd? Not at the Market Access Summit. We deliberately design the program to encourage you to meet with like-minded people – throughout the event. And with the added advantage of technology, you’ll do so at a number of small working groups, industry workshops, peer-led breakouts, roundtables and much more! You’ll come as an individual attendee – but you’ll leave as part of the Market Access Summit community!
