OFFICIAL DESCRIPTION FROM CBI

3rd Annual Forum on Strategic Distribution Planning for Specialty Products
Optimize Your Distribution Network to Achieve Greater Commercial Success!
September 20–21, 2012 in East Brunswick, NJ.

Join us to network and establish business relationships that help ensure access, use and reimbursement of your specialty product.

One critical part of product uptake and success is developing and managing the best way to configure your distribution and dispensing channels. Specialty wholesale distributors, specialty pharmacies, group purchasing organizations and direct distribution plans all offer a variety of benefits. Distributors can serve as barriers or partners—depending upon your plan.

At CBI’s 3rd Annual Forum on Strategic Distribution Planning for Specialty Products, leverage the power of partnering as you network with peers at other bio/pharma specialty manufacturers and interact with key stakeholders in distribution planning. To ensure your product is in the hands of the most likely forces that will guarantee pull through and lock in sizable usage, learn key considerations impacting a strategic distribution plan.

Register today and join the conversation on:

• Current trends and growth areas in the specialty market
• Fair Market Value for data and other services when entering into distributor contracts
• How distribution models impact the patient’s journey to access medication
• Processes for hub determination and partner selection
• Types of specialty data that are central to product teams

Plus! Participate in Walgreen's In-Conference Workshop—Optimize a Multi-Channel Approach.
