Arena International is proud to launch the newest event to the Outsourcing in Clinical Trials series; OCT East Asia. As the landscape of clinical trials continues to change in Asia, November will see the arrival of a specifically tailored event catering to this innovative pharmaceutical and biotech hub.

Why East Asia?

The recent rise in new start-up pharma and biotech companies in Asia has generated enormous interest from the government in investing and supporting outsourcing activities, putting Asia in the spotlight as the largest hub for clinical trial activity in the world. Despite this, Asia remains an emerging market and therefore local knowledge is limited, presenting the need for solution providers to fill the knowledge gap. This event aims to bring clinical trial professionals in the East Asia region, mainly Korea, China, Japan, Singapore and Taiwan to determine a future vision and strategy to optimize outsourcing for not only local but also global trials.

Could Asia be the next key contributors to clinical trials and drug discoveries?
