[Blog Post ] Q&A Regarding Common Concerns of China's NMPA
🌏Numerous international health-tech companies have been drawn to China's swiftly expanding pharmaceutical market. With a significant patient population and a notable prevalence of severe and chronic diseases, China holds immense potential. However, the primary obstacle hindering the entry of most foreign businesses into the Chinese market is their lack of knowledge about China's regulatory approval process. 🤔
💡The regulatory process is complex and time-consuming, with strict requirements and regional-specific documents. Recent reforms by NMPA have made it easier for international companies to enter the Chinese market.
👉Here our local experts in China answer some of the most typical questions being asked: https://lnkd.in/ePV5BrYCLinsen Du, Lei Gu (Gary), Nadine Ralph, Paul Cooper, Marjan Abdorahim, PhD, Hubert R.#ChinaNMPA#regulatoryprocess#chinaexpansion#chinesemarket
⚡New Policy Brief Alert ⚡
Africa's journey towards self-sufficiency in pharmaceutical production is a critical step in strengthening continental health security. However, achieving this goal requires a multifaceted approach, including strategic trade policies.
Our new policy brief, "Do as Everyone Else: Policies and Strategies for the Growth of Africa's Pharmaceutical Sector: Lessons from South Korea, Algeria, and South Africa," explores the key trade measures that can facilitate local pharmaceutical manufacturing.
Published by the GIZ African Union implemented Strengthening Crisis and Pandemic Response in Africa (SCPRA) Project and launched at African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) Secretariat Biashara Afrika 2024 in Kigali, Rwanda, this brief offers insights from successful case studies and provides actionable recommendations for policymakers.
❗❗❗ Key takeaways:
1. Trade liberalization: Reducing trade barriers can foster competition, lower costs, and encourage investment in pharmaceutical manufacturing.
2. Regional integration: Enhancing regional cooperation can create a larger market for African-made pharmaceuticals and improve supply chain efficiency.
3. Intellectual property rights: Striking a balance between protecting intellectual property and promoting innovation is essential for sustainable development.
4. Industrial policy: Targeted government support can help develop domestic pharmaceutical industries and attract foreign investment.
By implementing these strategies, Africa can accelerate its progress towards a more resilient and self-sufficient pharmaceutical sector.
