Industry speak:
Shri. Jayesh Ranjan, Principal Secretary to Government of Telangana, Industries & Commerce (I&C) Department & Information Technology, Electronics and Communications (ITE&C) Department, said, "I would like to congratulate UBM India's PharmaLytica for 4 successful years of being. It makes perfect sense to hold PharmaLytica in Hyderabad, as it is the pharma hub of India, and it gets to reiterate this claim with the setting up of the largest pharma city in the world, with over 15,000 acres space dedicated to all aspects of the industry. It is through huge forums as PharmaLytica where visitors and exhibitors can analyse how their work gets complemented by the building of a dedicated Pharma City. I am sure buyers and sellers will find PharmaLytica extremely insightful and fruitful, and I wish it all the best.
Mr. Madan Mohan Reddy, Chairman Pharmexcil and Director, Aurobindo Pharma, said, "We are at a crucial juncture where the pharma industry has to keep on upgrading its way of thinking, and innovating. There is no scope of sustainability otherwise. It has to understand the latest developments, analyse them and integrate them in the larger scheme of things. It is in such an environment that a platform like PharmaLytica helps to propel the industry forward. I must congratulate UBM for the professional way it has been conducting the pharma expos worldwide and moving things in the right direction. I am delighted that one of the ways which a key body like Pharmexcil gets to proactively support the cause of the industry is through forums such as PharmaLytica."
Dr. Rao Vadlamuri, President, Indian Pharmaceutical Association (IPA), said, "I would like to convey my sense of gratitude to platforms such as PharmaLytica. It is absolutely essential that trade shows meet technocrats and service providers meet manufacturers to get the complete picture and rise up to the challenges the pharma sector is giving rise to. UBM India is doing a wonderful job in the sector, and as President of IPA, I would say that while choosing Hyderabad as the venue is really justified, it would be great to approach other hubs in India that are rising as well. They too need all the exposure and support that a platform of this stature affords."
Mr. Gopal Malawade, Branch Head- Kirloskar Pneumatic Co. Ltd. said, "We are delighted to be a part of PharmaLytica 2017. It's indeed a great platform for us to connect with our existing and potential customers from the pharma industry. Kirloskar Pneumatic is one of the leading suppliers of the refrigeration systems that are used for HVAC and various cooling applications. This year, we are showcasing our New Generation Series Vapour Absorption Chiller, which has already earned a leading position in the industry by offering considerable cost savings in CAPEX & OPEX for our clients."
The event also featured an Innovation Gallery with eight participating companies showcasing their innovation and latest technology. The companies that represented under the Innovation Gallery are Biopharmax India Pvt. Ltd., Galaxy Sivtek Pvt. Ltd., Gandhi Automations Pvt. Ltd., Scientific Research Instruments Company Private Limited, S. K. Pharma Machinery Pvt. Ltd., Landsky Engineers Pvt. Ltd. and Orbit Technologies Pvt. Ltd., Hyderabad.
PharmaLytica 2017 is being held at a time of vital transformation for the pharma sector. Currently, the National Pharma Policy is being drafted by the Government to ensure, much like its far-sighted 'Pharma Vision 2020' campaign that India emerges as a true global leader in drug manufacturing. Issues of affordability and availability of medicines through the Drug Price Control Order & the National Pharmaceutical Pricing Authority are being aggressively addressed, along with a reduction of approval time for new facilities, to boost investments. PharmaLytica 2017 will help the pharmaceutical community network, engage in significant levels of market intelligence and voice the combined opinion on these trending subjects.
The expo is well supported by associations that include Pharmexcil, The Association of Contract Research Organisations (ACRO), Confederation of Indian Pharmaceutical Industry (CiPi) and Bulk Drug Manufacturers Association (India) BDMA.
