Join us on 7 March to discuss the impact of revision of the EU’s General Pharmaceutical Legislation (GPL) on Europe’s innovation ecosystem and biotechnology companies.
Following the publication on 24 January 2024 of a new study analysing the expected impact of the GPL on the biotechnology innovation ecosystem, EuropaBio is delighted to invite you to attend its exclusive webinar to discuss the consequences of this landmark legislation for the future of innovation in healthcare in Europe, EU patients and economies within a global race towards health security and competitiveness.
The event will start with a presentation of the study by Charles Rivers Associates and will be followed by a panel discussion featuring leading voices of the European biotechnology ecosystem to discuss the impact of the proposed legislation and its consequences on the development of breakthrough medicines for EU patients.
The webinar will take place on Thursday 7 March at 13.00 CET. If you wish to attend, please register below.

Speakers: Moderated by Dr Claire Skentelbery, EuropaBio
Cheese is a vegetarian product thanks to biotechnology. Biotechnology is also essential to produce lactose- or cholesterol-free cheese, as well as alternative proteins.
Clothes made from alternative fibres produced by microorganisms can be 8x stronger than steel, 100% recyclable, biodegradable and replace fossil-fuel based or resource-intensive textiles.
The biomanufacturing of Vitamin B2 led to the reduction of 75% of fossil raw materials and 50% operating costs, compared to the chemical process. Vitamin B2 is used in the food, feed or healthcare sectors.
Enzymes and biosurfactancts are alternative ingredients that improve the performance of detergents, while leading to water and energy savings and reductions in CO2 emissions and water toxicity.
Insulin is one of the most widely known biopharmaceutical. Biotechnology revolutionised its manufacturing process and led to the development of new types of insulin through r-DNA technology.
Algal Omage-3 is an innovative feed product for aquaculture. It reduces the impact on climate change by 30-40% compared to fish oil and saves 60 tons of wild fish for every ton of algal omega-3 used.
