3. Leadership in medicines manufacturing
4. Empowering the healthcare community by improving existing therapeutic options.

Commenting on the launch of ‘Together for Health’, Medicines for Europe Director General Adrian van den Hoven said “the EU elections are an opportunity to improve to healthcare across Europe. The EU can do more to ensure equitable access to medicines for patients for all Europeans. Our industry is ready to engage with the EU, national governments and stakeholders to make this happen.”
