Our fields of expertise are

Small Medium Enterprises - SMEs
EMA
The EU recognizes the key role that micro, small, and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) play in innovating new medicines, and the benefits they provide for patients. At the same time, it acknowledges that SMEs don't have the same resources as larger companies. To mitigate this issue, the EU introduced financial and administrative help for SMEs in 2005.
We can assist companies who wish to achieve SME status and access its available incentives.
FDA
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is a large, complex organization that requires a solid grasp of which processes are relevant for which projects, and therefore requires very specific expertise for each separate product category.
In the US, we have access to experts who are competent in:
- Representing international companies as the designated US agent
- Liaising with the FDA to resolve issues and expedite market approvals
- Preparing and submitting drug establishment registrations/renewals and drug product listings
- Managing and inputting study information into the FDA database of investigational protocols for the treatment of serious and life-threatening diseases
