The Background is:
EphMRA has been looking at future strategic options and paths
forward in order to ensure that it meets the needs of all its
members in the future. The Association is currently in good
shape with structures in place to ensure we can develop our
activities and engage our members.
However changes in the pharma industry mean that we face mergers
and acquisitions and thus the potential numbers of active full
member companies is changing and the number of pharma members to
participate in EphMRA activities may thus change. EphMRA is
looking to more closely define its strategic options, set aims and
objectives and timelines. Implementation of any changes is a
key stage.
