CHINATRIALS+US SUMMIT
The inaugural CHINATRIALS+US Summit launches amidst the recent boom of new innovative Chinese biotechs and updated CFDA regulations that enable international biopharmas to more easily bring their medicines to China.

The Summit will bring together 100+ clinical development leaders from Chinese innovative biotechs interested in launching clinical trials in the US and US biotechs interested in entering the China market.

Discussion topics will focus on the key considerations needed to develop an effective global development strategy that includes both the US and China markets. We hope the synergies of bringing these two important groups together will foster new opportunities into partnerships and collaboration for parallel drug development in the US and China.
