MediWales is delighted to launch the Natural Compounds Special Interest Group (SIG) alongside its collaborative partners. The SIG will be a forum that is used to discuss and support the development and commercialisation of natural products for health, wellbeing and disease management.
The aim is to provide a follow-on forum that augments existing research-focused interest groups so that findings from research environments can be transferred into commercialised products. The focus of this SIG will therefore be on taking natural compounds that have already been identified and for which research data already exists, to market.
The group will share advice on developing routes to market,managing regulatory requirements, achieving relevant product certifications and running clinical trials.
Key note speakers include:

Dr Joerg Gruenwald, Founder and Chief Scientific Advisor at Analyze & Realize GmbH and President of Herbalist & Doc GmbH
Michael Graz, Managing Director of Neem Biotech

2016-04-15 08:00 - 2016-04-23 17:00
Are you looking at China as a new market for your Life Science or Healthcare Business?

Ian Curryer, Nottingham City Council’s Chief Executive, will lead a delegation of businesses to China from the 15th-23rd April. The delegation will attend the following:

The Health Industry Summit, Asia’s largest Pharmaceutical and Medical industry event in Shanghai: 17-20 April
The China Britain Business Council’s “Investment Road Show” taking place during the Shanghai Technology Fair: 21-22 April
A trade mission to meed Life Science and Healthcare businesses in Hangzhou: 21-22 April

Did you know that it is predicted that healthcare spending in China will reach US $1 trillion by 2020, up from $350 billion today. The market for Life Science and Healthcare is growing rapidly in China and demand for foreign products and services has never been higher.
The Health Industry Summit (tHIS)is Asia’s largest Pharmaceutical and Medical industry event. With tens of thousands of products on display and delegates from across the globe, we see huge potential for Lifescience and Healthcare businesses who are actively looking for business opportunities in China, or companies who want to explore the China market in greater depth. The exhibition will have three specific focuses: Medical Products, Pharmaceutical products and Pharmaceutical ingredients.
If you’re ready to trade with China why not take a booth (shell scheme). A 9sqm shell scheme, with prices starting from £2070, will give you the opportunity to show off your products to representatives from China’s top Life Science and Healthcare companies. The event organisers will work with you to understand your product/service and introduce potential clients. The NCC China Team will also work with you to ensure you are connected with the event organisers and businesses from your sector.
If you’re looking to explore the market in China and can demonstrate an interest in a certain area of Lifescience and Healthcare then you will gain free access to the event and be plugged into meetings with businesses in the specified field. You will develop a deeper understanding, make new contacts and hopefully be inspired to set up new trade links with China. The event organisers can also arrange tours of local Life Science and Healthcare businesses to help you understand the differences/similarities of businesses in China.

If you are interested in finding out more about this mission, please contact Paul Edwards. Please note that the deadline for registration of interest is Monday 15 February 2016.
