This session will be the opportunity to look at the future and discuss how to overcome the remaining challenges and optimise opportunities to deliver innovative and efficient drugs that address children’s needs. All stakeholders have key roles and responsibilities in bringing new and beneficial medicines to Children in Europe. They face different challenges that are unique to Europe, while medicines are developed for global purpose. This panel discussion aims to promote common understanding and alignment on some important points from different stakeholders and will set the scene for future dialogue.
